Turkey & Tinsel in Weston-super-Mare and Longleat Festival of Light

Local departure by coach or Home Connect service, then on to Weston-super-Mare and our hotel for four nights. We enjoy a tea, coffee or mulled wine with a festive treat on arrival to get us into the spirit of the season.

Enjoy a fun-filled evening out to Longleat – home to the UK's first and most famous safari park. There's so much to see and do here, and we'll make sure there’s time to get lost in the famous maze and admire the stunning parkland around the stately home. Immerse yourself in the magic of Christmas as the Festival of Light returns, with more life-size lanterns than ever before and an iconic Winter Safari.

Enjoy a day to relax in Weston-super-Mare. Nestled on the Somerset coast, with a 2-mile stretch of sandy beach, the level seafront makes for a delightful stroll. Or, you can enjoy traditional seaside fun at the Grand Pier – be sure to treat yourself to an ice cream!

Alternatively, join our optional excursion to the village of Cheddar, set below the towering Cheddar Gorge cliffs, which have fascinated visitors for centuries. There are gentle riverside walks to be enjoyed from the village as well as quaint tearooms and, of course, the famous Cheddar Gorge Cheese Company!

We then call at Wells, England's smallest city which is bursting with history and culture.

Today, we visit Bristol and its magical Christmas market. Located in the heart of the city, the market boasts cosy chalets and wooden stalls selling traditional food, unique gifts and hand-crafted ornaments, all of which are towered over by a giant Christmas tree.

We return to the hotel in time for our Christmas dinner, complete with a complimentary glass of wine.

We depart the hotel this morning full of festive cheer and return home.
