We specialize in the leisure travel market. We provide unique pre-arranged private group short break holidays limited to 6 visitors. Our trips are carefully researched and planned in a tour setting saving you time and energy.
Re-covid-19: We are following all government and industry guidance and standards and will make sure your holiday is safe and comfortable.
We will open your eyes to new and different experiences that Cumbria has to offer which will inspire, astonish and enrich you!
Our first tour, Cartmel and Coniston, is in late September 2020. We will be staying at a fantastic 450 year old coaching inn in one of Cumbria’s most picturesque villages, Cartmel, eating wonderful English food, including lunch at the renowned restaurant Rogan & Co and visiting two fantastic historical houses and gardens as well as taking the ferry across Coniston Water.
Our Literature, Art and Nature tour is in October 2020. We are going to base ourselves in the beautiful village of Hawkshead so we can be near the museums and homes of Wordsworth in Grasmere, Beatrix Potter in Hawkshead and John Ruskin overlooking Coniston.
We include bed, breakfast, and all evening meals in our 4 night tours as well as all the activities mentioned in our itineraries and a guide and driver.
We love to have couples on our tours but realize we all have different interests. We can arrange day golf passes if your partner would prefer a day on the golf course instead.
