In a nutshell: Close to Durham City, toddler friendly, games room. Our featured Durham cottages include this property, just a few miles from Durham City, the jewel in the crown of this county. The city has an impressive cathedral which, together with the nearby castle, has been a World Heritage site since 1987. Thought by many to be the finest example of Norman church architecture in England, the cathedral dominates the old city on a rocky peninsula where the Rive Wear almost bends back on itself. Compact enough to explore on foot. Durham also has a university, England's third oldest after Oxford and Cambridge, adding further to the city's character.
