County Durham

Motorhome Stopovers in County Durham

County Durham has Durham Cathedral and Castle — a UNESCO World Heritage Site whose setting above the River Wear is considered one of the finest in Europe. Inland, the North Pennines AONB (England’s last true wilderness by some measures) takes in High Force — England’s highest waterfall by volume — and the market town of Barnard Castle, which sits above the Tees with a ruined castle and the extraordinary Bowes Museum inside a French chateau.
