Lake District Steam and Cruise
|
| with Bowness, Kendal, Grasmere and Ambleside |
For sheer beauty, there are few places in Britain offering the varying landscapes of the truly magnificent Lake District. A land of placid lakes, in whose waters are mirrored the peaks of England’s tallest mountains, picturesque towns and villages, a wealth of history and heritage, and scenery that has remained largely unchanged since the days of William Wordsworth. This great poet described the area as “the loveliest spot man hath ever found”, and made his home at Dove Cottage, now a museum, in Grasmere. ‘Special’ doesn’t do justice to the place…!!
Enjoy a four or five day adventure to the heart of the Lake District. Join us on our inclusive excursion taking in the scenic delights on board the Haverthwaite Steam Railway plus an inclusive cruise on the shimmering waters of Lake Windermere. We also feature visits to discover charming Keswick, Grasmere & Ambleside. |

It is now bulging with fabulous new shops, has buzzing new restaurants, hip hotels and trendy wine bars, as well as a world class cultural offering with more museums and galleries anywhere outside of London. Not forgetting its inhabitants, of course, who are famously friendly and will welcome you with pride.
This break offers the chance to stay in the famous Adelphi Hotel with free time to enjoy the city and to top it all, a 99p bar!! |

Newquay and Cornish Resorts
|
| with St. Ives and Falmouth |
Cornwall is a land in which beauty, wildlife, a sub-tropical climate, cliff and rolling moorland combine to dazzle the eye. The quality of the air too is something special; and it was the rare quality of the light, which, at the turn of the century, drew so many leading artists to Cornwall. Britain’s most westerly county boasts magnificent beaches, a fascinating history and some wonderfully attractive traditions… Our base is the town of Newquay, where the Atlantic rollers have combined with the Gulf Stream to create a rugged riviera of cliff, cave, rock-pool and soft, golden sand. It stretches for seven miles, this beach paradise, and makes this one-time fishing village Cornwall’s premier resort. Newquay is unquestionably Cornwall’s most popular and liveliest resort, with the town centre overlooking a succession of fine beaches (including several of the finest in Europe). Offering holiday attractions to suit all tastes and ages, Newquay has a bustling shopping centre, seafront strolls, attractive parks and gardens, golf course, lively pubs and exciting nightlife. |

Olde England and Blists Hill Victorian Town
|
| Great-value 2-day ‘Weekends Away’... |
Ludlow is a lively market town and breathes history at every turn. Fascinating architecture, traditional markets, independent shops and an excellent reputation for food and drink, makes for ‘the most perfect town in England’. Bridgnorth was one of the busiest river ports in Europe. Nowadays, the Severn, clear and unpolluted, is a quiet haven for anglers and wildlife. The river divides the town into High Town and Low Town, linked by seven sets of ancient donkey steps and a Victorian funicular railway. At Blists Hill, costumed staff give a fascinating insight into Victorian times. Exchange money in the Bank, admire the goods in the Grocers, Bakery and Sweetshop. Hear about curious remedies in the Chemist, and see the printer in action. |

Paignton and South Devon resorts
|
| at the heart of Devon’s ‘English Riviera’... |
Famous for its long, sandy beaches, paddler-friendly waters and a colourful, bustling pier, Paignton remains a popular, traditional seaside resort. Its lively seafront, and that of nearby Goodrington, offers a host of attractions, but if you crave peace and relaxation, pick a spot on one of the secluded beaches, inlets and coves that stretch along the coast towards Brixham. Away from the shores, there's no shortage of things to do and visitors are spoilt for choice! Take the steam train along the Paignton and Dartmouth Steam Railway to Kingswear, visit the endangered species at Paignton Zoo, or indulge in some history at the 500-year-old Kirkham House or at Oldway Mansion, once home of Isaac Singer of Singer sewing machine fame. And at the end of the day...an evening stroll along the seafront, under the soft light of the beach-front illuminations, is a perfect way to round things off. With all the essential ingredients for a magical holiday, Paignton is the ideal seaside resort. |
