Region: Rich with fascinating historical sights and rolling countryside, experience Durham's breath-taking views from its position atop a craggy hill. From the iconic Romanesque Cathedral and 11th century Durham Castle nestled in the centre of town, to its sleepy villages and thriving Heritage Coast, Durham is the perfect holiday choice.
Town: Stanley is a quaint former colliery town located in County Durham, near the vibrant cities of Sunderland and Newcastle upon Tyne. The town is known for Beamish, a world-famous open air museum with recreations of Georgian, Victorian and Edwardian streets and storefronts, which tells the story of life in North England during the 19th and early 20th centuries. It offers a wealth of eateries such as The Ox Inn for some delicious pub grub, Indian Kitchen SouthMoor for some mouthwatering curries, The Stables Bar & Restaurant with its terrace for some alfresco dining, and more. A stone's throw away you'll find the bustling port city of Sunderland where you'll laze on the sand at Seaburn Beach when the weather allows, head to the grand Lambton Castle for a touch of history and why not catch a show at the ornate, Edwardian Sunderland Empire Theatre? Close by you'll also find the city of Newcastle which boasts a plethora of activities, eateries and nearby seaside towns. Take a trip to the stunning 55-acre Saltwell Park with its imposing estate and boating lake, visit the Discovery Museum to find out more about the town's local history and end the day with some amazing quayside dining at Träkol.
