Durham could definitely be one of those towns that appear in fairy tales and stories of kings and knights. Lying on a hilled peninsula formed by the Wear River, the striking cathedral overlooks from the hilltop, surrounded by the castle, palaces and historic buildings. Get transported back in time by the magic of this English jewel, declared a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
Though archaeological evidence suggests the area has been inhabited since 2000 BC, the present-day settlement was founded by monks from Lindisfarne in 995, choosing the area as the final resting place of Saint Cuthbert. Symeon of Durham stated once that ‘to see Durham is to see the English Zion, and by doing so one may save oneself a trip to Jerusalem’. Hotels and B&Bs in Durham’s historic centre are a popular choice to enjoy this historic legacy.
Its powerful religious position granted such great honour to the city, that the bishop still holds the rights to a seat in the House of Lords, and to accompany the sovereign at the coronation. During the 19th century and encompassing the industrial revolution, the university was founded, with Durham Castle becoming its first college.
Whether you’re searching for a cottage, a modern hotel, or a cheap hostel, Booking.com offers a wide range of accommodation in the area.

Loads to do and excellent restaurants, boat trip a must and do take time to visit the Cathedral. Friendly people, can be a bit tiring with quite a few hills and steps but well worth it. Give it a go, it's exceptional ++++

Wonderful Cathedral, Castle and city centre full of interesting history. Take a long walk along the tow path to enjoy the views. Check out Flat White cafe for coffee and amazing brunch at 10am on Sundays but get there early to avoid the long queues.

Durham was very interesting with many interesting and varied sights. Lovely historical buildings, modern shopping facilities and a beautiful setting with riverside walks and gardens within a stones throw.
The Cathedral was wonderful and there were plentiful choices of eateries. We chose a Turkish restaurant which proved to be very reasonable and the meal was excellent.

The old town was perfect for exploring with some great shops and restaurants, do not miss the Cathedral or the River walks and Crook Hall is only a 15 minute walk from the town centre by footbridge passing the Worlds biggest Anglepoise lamp on the way...

Durham is an attractive city but very small.
Durham is an attractive city but very small. We were there for 3 days and 2 would have been plenty. A few good tea-shops, pubs and restaurants. The botanical gardens along with the cathedral are worth a visit.
So far as we could tell there were no shoe shops(!)
Very nicely stylishly furnished property. Wild garden. Comfortable beds. Quiet, pleasant location. Very convenient for amenities such as shops, pub, take-aways and small supermarket and vet all nearby. Beautiful woodland walk (Aykley Woods) a few minutes away with amazing views of Durham Cathedral. 30 mins drive to wonderful beaches. Good bus connections or you can walk into Durham City Centre in about 25 mins. We had a few family members over to celebrate my granddaughter's 18th birthday. Handy for Durham University. Very dog friendly.
Lovely place to stay, will definitely recommend to friends. Perfect location with only a short walk into the city centre. Our room was lovely with a comfortable bed and free Wi-Fi. Breakfast was delicious with a variety of options. Had a great weekend away, will definitely book to stay again when next in Durham.
We booked the hotel for its proximity to Durham University and we were not disappointed. Within minutes, we were on the Bailey. Due to the university event, breakfast was full of parent + young person pairs and there was plenty of food and beverages. The staff was very friendly. I'll certainly be back.
Staff were friendly, professional and helpful. Hotel is very, very nice, Breakfast was excellent in that beautiful Restaurant (Marco Pierre White's attached). Handy for the Cathedral, river and City centre. Next time in Durham I will stay again.
Lovely little friendly B&B with a great pub attached,ideal location to visit durham city centre.very clean and hosts were fab.The breakfast was one of the nicest we have had.will definitely be back for another visit soon.
