Welcome to Pity Me

Pity Me is a small village located in County Durham, England. Despite its name, the village is a charming and peaceful place to live.

One of the main attractions in Pity Me is the local pub, The Pity Me Inn. The pub is a popular spot for locals and visitors alike, offering a warm and welcoming atmosphere.

The village is located just a short drive from the city of Durham, making it an ideal location for those who want to enjoy the peace and quiet of village life while still having access to the amenities of a larger city.

Local Dog Walks

Watergate Bay
Watergate Bay Is A Two-Mile Stretch Of Golden Sand On The North Cornish Coast, Two Miles From Newquay. A Favourite With Surfers And People Flying Kites (Which Drove My Dog Crazy - Big Multi-Coloured Birds In The Sky!) It Is Dog-Friendly All Year Round. Jame Oliver Has A Restaurant Overlooking The Beach (Probably Not Dog-Friendly, I Don't Know). But The Beach Hut, Which Is Adjacent To The Sand, Is Very Dog-Friendly And Serves Locally Caught Mussels And Very Fine Hamburgers. I Visited In April But I Imagine This Place Gets Mobbed In August.
