    One of my favourite cathedrals.

    One of my favourite cathedrals. If you want a guided tour, which I recommend, try and have Alan as your guide. He is so very knowledgeable and has a wonderful sense of humour. I tried to book a ticket and/or tour of the castle, but it was closed for private functions, like weddings, for both the days I was in Durham. Early booking is obviously the answer! Walk through town was also good.

    What a building!

    What a building! We don't like being charge to enter God's house so were pleasantly surprised to be asked, with no pressure, for a donation which we were delighted to do. It was certainly the highlight of your short visit to Durham

    Use park and ride into town, then pick up a local bus to the cathedral - its bit of climb for the less agile - the Cathedral café serves decent food and is no more expensive than other places in town most of which have los of steps. Check there is no wedding /funeral when you visit or you may have limited access.

    Atmospheric, great sense of history & the many generations who have worshipped there. I attended the Sunday morning service which I very much enjoyed. Listening to their choir was quite an emotional experience.

    Very rich and delicious breakfast; a beautifully designed hotel and a spacious deluxe room with a view of Durham Cathedral. The hotel is very well located by the riverbank, and very close to major attractions.

    Long time since I stayed at the county, returning home for a family funeral. Hotel was as lovely as ever, but more importantly the staff were extremely professional and helpful, and gave us a room with wonderful views of Durham Cathedral and Castle. Thank you

    The hotel is charming and beautifully decorated and we loved the view of Durham cathedral from our room. We also appreciated the Molton Brown bathroom soaps and body lotion etc. The shower was fantastic and one of the best on our travels for pressure and temperature control. The breakfast was delicious and they also catered for gluten free.
