It is situated in the North Pennines Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, which makes it a popular destination for tourists who are looking for a peaceful and scenic place to visit. The village is surrounded by rolling hills, lush green fields, and dense forests, which provide ample opportunities for hiking, cycling, and other outdoor activities. The River Wear also runs through the village, adding to its natural beauty.

Despite its small size, Bedburn has a rich history that dates back to the Roman times. The village was once a thriving mining community, and evidence of its industrial past can still be seen in the form of old mine shafts and abandoned buildings.

One of the most notable landmarks in Bedburn is the St. Alban's Church, which was built in the 12th century and is still in use today. The church is a beautiful example of Norman architecture and features a number of interesting historical artifacts, including a 14th-century font and a 17th-century pulpit. Overall, Bedburn is a charming and picturesque village that offers visitors a glimpse into the rich history and natural beauty of Durham.
