Itinerary
Day 1
Morning departure to Durham, a captivating city with winding cobbled streets and a prominent peninsula crowned with the dramatic Durham Cathedral and Castle World Heritage Site. Explore the timeless quality of this quintessential old English University City, take some time out with a relaxing riverside walk or river cruise, or soak up the atmosphere with superb cafés, artisan workshops, boutiques, galleries and museums.Day 2
Today we take a scenic drive along the coast. We stop at Holy Island (tide times permitting) and Bamburgh Castle, one of the largest inhabited castles in England.
