Top neighborhoods in Durham

Pity Me

Pity Me offers a peaceful escape from Durham's city bustle with its charming residential streets and local pubs. This small village gives you an authentic slice of English suburban life, complete with friendly locals and well-kept gardens. The nearby Lambton Worm pub serves up hearty British meals and local ales after a day of exploring. Getting to Durham's attractions is a breeze with regular bus services making the 15-minute journey into the city center. Accommodations here are budget-friendly B&Bs in converted family homes, offering cozy rooms and personal host interactions at prices much lower than downtown.

Brasside

Brasside feels like a secret hideaway just beyond the bustle of Durham city. This quiet residential suburb puts you close to nature with the Low Newton Reserve right there for peaceful walks through the woods. When you're ready to explore, Adventure Valley and historic Finchale Priory wait nearby while Durham Cathedral sits just a short drive away. Budget-friendly B&Bs in converted family homes make this neighborhood easy on your wallet. Most visitors grab a rental car for flexibility since bus service is limited. The local pub offers a taste of authentic British community life while Durham's varied dining scene is just 15 minutes away.

Learn more about Durham

Admired for its university life and cathedral, Durham features attractions such as Gala Theatre Durham and Crook Hall and Gardens. This welcoming city has something for everyone including its rich culture, restaurants, and sights like Diggerland and Durham Indoor Market.

We stopped by Durham today as part of a University Open Day visit and took some time to also explore the town. 

As well as the cathedral which commends a great spot over the river there is also the castle, botanical gardens as well as lots of old parts of the beautiful town to explore.
