York

Welcome to York, whenever I take groups to York, most head straight for the York Minster, Northern Europe’s biggest medieval church. York is an attractive city, you can explore its history through the many museums and churches, such as Holy Trinity Church and the Jorvic Viking Centre. Other places to visit are the National Railway Museum, York Brewery, York Dungeon and York Art Gallery.
For the shoppers, “The Shambles” with its shops and market stalls is a great place to pick up a bargain or your lunch.



Scarborough

My first visit to Scarborough went really well, as I was unsure what Scarborough had to offer, I found the scenery and the welcome from the locals very inviting.

Having returned a few more times to Scarborough, normally for a maximum of 5 days, I now look forward to its warm welcome.

Scarborough’s a busy Victorian family resort, with safe, sandy beaches which you get to by way of its 3 cliff lifts, the South Cliff lift, the Central lift and the St Nicholas lift.

Places worth viewing are the Castle and remains of Queens Tower and also its working Harbour.

The North Yorkshire Moors National Park is another area that we visit, usually taking the coast road to Whitby via Robin Hoods Bay.

The village of Goathland has been, and still is, on many of the holiday "must see villages", made famous for its fictional name of “Aidensfield” in the Heartbeat TV series. It’s a great village in its own right; you can even take a train journey from here on the North York’s Railway.





It really is “A PEOPLE THING”
