Staying in Durham
Durham is a small cathedral city built on a steep, wooded peninsula in a loop of the River Wear, and its Norman cathedral and castle, together a UNESCO World Heritage Site, give it one of the most striking skylines in England. The castle is still in use as a college of Durham University, England's third-oldest, and the university shapes the place more than anything else: cobbled lanes of bookshops and cafés, rowing crews on the river, and a calendar that swings between packed term-time weeks and noticeably quieter holidays.
With a population of under fifty thousand, it is compact enough to see in a day, the evening scene leans heavily student, and the hotel stock is limited, filling fast around graduation and big university weekends. Stay on or near the peninsula around Market Place so the cathedral, castle and riverside walks are all on foot, and the steep streets don't become a nightly climb.
Typical weather
