DAY ONE - Depart from your home area in the morning travelling to West Yorkshire and arriving at the Cedar Court Hotel in time for dinner. 4 nights stay - dinner, bed and breakfast.

DAY TWO - This morning, we begin with a drive to the pleasant North Yorkshire market town of Settle. We enjoy a ride on the Settle and Carlisle Railway - considered one of England’s most scenic rail journeys. We join the diesel train for the journey, passing through spectacular scenery, crossing the famous Ribblehead Viaduct.

We rejoin the coach for the short journey into Hawes, the main town of Wensleydale. After a break and chance to obtain lunch, we continue along the dale to join the Wensleydale Railway.

DAY THREE - Today we head off along the Aire Valley to Skipton – ‘Gateway to the Dales’. The main street houses a well-known market, and Skipton Castle stands proudly at the top of the street.

From Skipton, we make our way to Haworth, home of the famous Bronte sisters and their notorious brother. Later we enjoy a train ride along the delightful Worth Valley, following the locations used in the film ‘The Railway Children’.

DAY FOUR - Our journey begins with a visit to Bolton Abbey, a ruined priory set in a beautiful and tranquil location alongside the River Wharfe. Continuing through beautiful scenery we visit the Dales village of Grassington. The cobbled streets, diminutive marketplace and many quaint byways and alleyways make it a place to linger.

DAY FIVE - After breakfast, we leave and begin our journey home.
