So proud of our beautiful Durham Cathedral! ⛪✨

We were delighted to see the cathedral will be featured in BBC Pilgrimage, The Road to Holy Island.

Standing at the heart of the city, Durham Cathedral is a truly special place. Rich in history, breathtaking in beauty, and a landmark we’re incredibly proud to call our own.

If you haven’t visited yet, it’s a must see when you’re in Durham!
