Travel Guide
Durham bound with The BookTrail
The Novel is largely set in Durham but there’s a nice time to be had in York too!
Durham
Life centres around the university and the library which is a nice place to be. An old city, with plenty of history and more. A city which feels lonely, as anywhere would, if you are away from home:
“Life in Durham had felt more isolated than expected. She felt isolated from her friends in York and Leeds….”
” The fact that Durham was essentially its own little peninsula cut off by the River Wear didn’t help with the sense of separation.”
York
There is mention of York and a nice sounding hotel – the Ryedale hotel. The iconic street of Walmgate also gets a nice mention.
