Durham, a proud and historic city with a unique sense of identity. Guaranteeing you a warm welcome, Durham fuses its own past and cultural heritage with the modern expectations of visitors to create a city that is unique and different but maintains a familiarity to its visitors.

Whitby is a town that offers you something a little bit different to the ‘typical’ coastal resort! Here, you can explore ornate cobbled paths, locally owned shops and quirky cafes, giving the town a unique, welcoming atmosphere. One of the most iconic parts of this lovely town is the famous gothic abbey, said to have inspired Bram Stoker’s Dracula. Founded in 657, Whitby Abbey is over 2,000 years old and has so many fascinating stories for you to discover!
