Holidays

In Durham City you’re among some of the world’s finest architecture. This is a truly beautiful city, where the famous Castle and Cathedral, together designated a UNESCO World Heritage Site, dominate the skyline.

Our ever popular visit to Valkenburg, affectionately known as “Christmas town”, is this year complemented by a late summer visit. The wonderful café and bar filled streets are a pleasure to sit, eat, drink and soak up the atmosphere on a warm afternoon or evening just as much as they are under the gaze of the dazzling Christmas Lights of the winter. A truly stunning place to visit.

No other city in northern England says ‘medieval’ quite like York. The centre is surrounded by a magnificent circuit of 13th century walls which encloses a medieval spider’s web of narrow streets. At its heart lies the immense, awe inspiring York Minster, one of the largest and most beautiful Gothic Cathedrals in the world.

Located on the beautiful south coast of Cornwall, Falmouth is built on the banks of the Fal estuary, known as the Carrick Roads, which is the third largest natural harbour in the world and the town, its port and docks are a hive of activity all year round.

Steeped with Victorian history, Weston-super-Mare is located at the gateway to the South West of England. The wide sweep of Weston Bay has miles of clean sandy beach, and a level promenade boasting superb views over the Channel. There is lovely coastline and countryside to explore in Cheddar, Wells, Bristol, Bath and the Mendip and Quantock Hills are all within easy reach.
