A Trip to Durham
October 22nd, 2009
I’ve just been up to Durham to visit my son who is at university there. He is living in halls, so my wife and I stayed in a lovely holiday cottage near Beamish in County Durham which was close to both the university and Newcastle. We spent Saturday shopping in the Metro Centre which was a short drive away, then went for a meal in Newcastle. On Sunday we took a walk along the Derwent walk, which followed a river through the countryside. I was amazed at how close quality Holiday Cottages Durham are to the big towns and cities, you can get away from it all in the leafy country and be back in suburbia within minutes.
