Killhope Cafe - Durham - Photo album

Picturesque in winter snow, nice to spend some time during open times. Mine of knowledge of mining!

A wonderful day was spent here. It was quiet and we had our own guide. We saw the red squirrels too.

Great day out! Fantastic location, interesting exhibition and great to don wellies and hard hats to go inside the mine. Our guide was informative and interesting. The place is well worth a visit.

Impromptu day out here and was amazed at the place. Staff are outstanding and very knowledgeable. Prices are excellent also. Will be back!

Really enjoyed Got to know about some old times and history

Loved this place kids spent couple of hours there this afternoon n came home with lots of shinning stones x I loved the scenic area the mill but did not get down the mine . Maybe another day well worth a visit
