world heritage sites (durham castle/cathedral and Hadrians wall) along with Harry Potter locations (Alnwick/Durham/Goathland), Dracula, and some of the most impressive castle settings in the UK. A fully escorted 6 days packed with variety, interest, scenery and history from Roman to Victorian and beyond. In my view Durham is the loveliest city in England, and Northumberland is the most impressive region. Warkworth and especially Helmsley, both of which we use for overnights, are amongst the very nicest towns in England
