Getting there & away

Land

Bus

The bus station is west of the river on North Rd. All National Express buses arrive here, while bus 352 links Newcastle and Blackpool via Durham, Barnard Castle, Raby Castle and Kirkby Stephen. Destinations include Edinburgh (£21.50, four hours, one daily), Leeds (£13.80, 2½ hours, four daily) and London (£27.50, 6½ hours, four daily). There are three daily National Express buses to Newcastle (£2.50, 30 minutes); bus 21 provides a half-hourly service but takes twice as long because it makes plenty of stops along the way.

Train

There are services at least hourly to London (£105.50, three hours), Newcastle (£4.60 single, 20 minutes) and York (£20.60, one hour).
