ABOUT DURHAM CITY

On your stay in Durham city come and see "the best cathedral on Planet Earth" - and no, they're not our words but those of travel writer Bill Bryson. Intending to stop off here "for an hour or so", he "fell in love with (Durham) instantly", charmed by its mixture of history and culture, adventure and fine food alike.

Sir Walter Scott discribed Durham Cathedral as ' half house of God, half Castle against the Scot' !
