Durham is a fantastic city! The Normans built the castle and cathedral on the high ground in the middle of a 'horseshoe' in the river. The Castle is now a University Hall of Residence, but there are tours during the vacations. The Cathedral has a definite 'presence' unlike some cathedrals that feel like a tourist attraction. If possible, go to a service (even if you are not religious, it is a good experience). Don't miss climbing the tower - the view from the top is superb. After, walk round the 'horsehoe' at river level and perhaps hire a rowing boat.
