Accommodations in Durham for Your Next Holiday Escape

January 19, 2023 by Admin

Accommodations in Durham

When visiting Durham to see the Cathedral, Durham Castle, or perhaps settling your child in (or visiting them) at Durham University, you’ll need comfortable accommodation. However, a break in Durham at any time of the year is filled with charm, with each season having its own unique feel and attraction. Winter is still upon us, and even though Spring is looming temptingly on the horizon, there is still time to enjoy the colder months in the north. Think winter walks along frosted fields, lakes, and hills, time in cosy pubs and restaurants, or seeing the sights with fewer crowds. And when you’re after warm accommodations for a frosty escape in Durham for your next holiday, there are a few places that are well worth considering.
