Best of Yorkshire - Your Excursions
FULL DAY
We head for Masham, gateway to Wensleydale, for a tour of the Black Sheep Brewery (admission included) - including a glass of the renowned beer! Then it’s deep into the Yorkshire Dales to visit Hawes Creamery (admission included), to see how the famous Wensleydale Cheese is made, before returning through scenic Ribblesdale and lovely Wharfedale.
FULL DAY
Our full day excursion takes us to Holmfirth and the Holme Valley, setting for TV’s long-running ‘Last of the Summer Wine’ series. Discover ‘Sid’s Café’, ‘Norah Batty’s house’, and The Last of the Summer Wine exhibition in ‘Compo’s’ former home! Then it’s on through the nearby Colne Valley and ‘Skelthwaite’, location of ‘Where the Heart is’, to Calderdale and Hebden Bridge, where a leisurely cruise by barge on the Rochdale Canal is included.
FULL DAY
The day is reserved for a visit to York, without doubt one of our favourite tourist cities.There will be ample time for sightseeing and shopping, but there is so much to see, you will have to be selective. The majestic Minster is the main attraction, whilst a stroll around the old Roman walls will give you a unique view of the city. Explore the Shambles, a narrow alleyway chock full of tempting shops, and discover fabulous museums such as the Jorvik Centre and National Railway Museum.
