Local departure by coach or Home Connect service, then on to Scarborough for three nights. We enjoy a tea, coffee or mulled wine with a festive treat on arrival to get us into the spirit of the season.
Today we enjoy a magical visit to the cathedral city of York. Step back into the Middle Ages by visiting the ‘Shambles,’ with its overhanging timber-framed houses, traditional shops and cobbled pathways. Exploring the Christmas market is a must at this time of year; treat yourself to a mulled wine in the alpine bar; find a thoughtful gift in one of the wooden stalls; and soak up the enchanting atmosphere as you wander the illuminated streets. Whilst here, be sure to take in the magnificent York Minster – one of the largest cathedrals in Northern Europe.
We return back to the hotel in time for our Christmas dinner, complete with a complimentary glass of wine.
Relax in Scarborough, or why not join our optional excursion to the Whitby? Famed for its associations with Dracula, Whitby's quaint town centre and harbour are overlooked by the dramatic ruins of the beautiful Abbey, and its quirky cobbled streets are lined with shops and cafés.
We continue to call at Goathland, a pretty village nestled in the heart of the North York Moors. The village was made famous by the TV series Heartbeat and more recently the Harry Potter films, as Goathland station is used as the set location for 'Hogsmeade'.
We return to the hotel for a festive cream tea.
