This morning after a leisurely breakfast. What better way to count down to Christmas than by visiting the winter wonderland at Beamish, the Living Museum of the North. Experience Christmas from days gone by, Stroll around Town Street, Pit Village, Home Farm and Pockerley Old Hall. Lots of opportunity to obtain a drink and a bite to eat before returning to our hotel.

 

DAY THREE – Durham

Today we continue our holiday with a day at leisure to experience the City of Durham Christmas Festival. The great loop of the River Wear’s wooded gorge provides a natural backdrop to its massive Cathedral and Castle. Downhill from the Castle you can trace Durham’s mediaeval layout as you thread through the narrow winding streets and snickets. There is a wide range of shops, and the traditional Victorian indoor market will be augmented by traditional stalls, street theatre, jugglers and Victorian clad peddlers selling their wares. Away from the bustle you can stroll along wooded riverbanks offering a peaceful retreat below the peeling Cathedral bells.
