Local departure by coach, then on to Harrogate 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.
Today we visit York, one of the most historic cities in England. Stroll down The Shambles, with its over-hanging timber-framed houses and traditional shopfronts or else explore York Minster, one of the largest cathedrals in Northern Europe and a superb example of beautiful, Gothic architecture. Dive further back in time and uncover the city’s Viking history at the Jorvik Viking Centre, discover 300 years of railway history at the National Railway Museum, or learn more about York’s sweet history at the Chocolate Story. For those who would rather browse the shops, York has plenty to offer, from high street favourites to quirky and independent boutiques, along with excellent cafes, pubs and restaurants.
At this time of year, York is home to St Nicholas Fair, one of the best Christmas Markets in the county, boasting traders from across the country selling the traditional festive foods and hand-crafted gifts.
We return back to the hotel in time for our 'Christmas Dinner' complete with a complimentary glass of wine.
Please note: Christmas market dates are subject to confirmation.
Relax in Harrogate or join our optional excursion to Skipton, with its famous market and iconic castle. Known as the ‘Gateway to the Dales’, Skipton have long visited this market town. Why not visit the 900 year old castle, romantic ruined priory or simply stroll down the historic cobbled High Street and browse the shops.

This morning we visit pretty Knaresborough, perched on the cliffs above the River Nidd.

Why not visit Mother Shipton’s Cave and Petrifying Well, thought to be England’s oldest tourist attraction and once home of Knaresborough’s mysterious prophetess who died in 1561.
