What's on in Skerne Park

Durham, England

Skerne Park sits quietly in Durham where the river bends and the air smells of damp earth after a shower. It is not a place for crowds but rather for those who prefer a pint on the terrace or a walk along the bank without being pushed along by the tide. The town keeps its pace steady so you can take your time choosing between a local pub or a quiet corner shop nearby. We make sure everything from garden parties to book clubs is easy to find right here. It is a proper bit of Durham that knows how to relax and stay warm when the wind picks up.
