Travel

    The University’s official Visit Us page provides some general guidance. Here are some further remarks how to get there:

  • If you are arriving at Newcastle International, take the tram (there’s only one) to Newastle Central (less than 40 minute) and then take a train to the South. Durham is 15 minutes away from Newcastle Central
  • Alternatively, you can take a taxi from the airport (should be around 60 GBP for a drive of around 40 minutes in total).
  • From Durham train station, it is a 30-40 minute walk.
  • Taxis should be available from the station and should be around 10-15 GBP.
  • Right in front of the station, there’s a bus stop with two lines
  • Bus 42 to Mount Oswald. It runs every 30 minutes. Get off at “South Road Colleges” and walk up the hill from there (5 minutes).
  • Bus 41 to University Science Park. Hop off at the final stop.

Accommodation

    There is no financial or logistics support for accommodation and travel, but we can point to a few hotels nearby that guests of the department use frequently. Participants will need to make all booking:

  • Hotel Indigo
  • Premier Inn
  • Marriott
  • Travelodge
    • The University has their own Events team . They also provide B&B accommodation. However, as we approach the new term, it is not likely that they have “spare” rooms.
