2021 SHORT BREAKS AND HOLIDAYS - Finally, some good news! We aim to commence our programme at Easter in 2021, commencing with a small group short break to the Isles of Scilly and Tresco Abbey Gardens - an island escape that is close to home. We are now firming up an inspiring programme of short breaks and holidays, mainly staycations, now that we can be more confident about the prospect of travel in 2021. Rest assured that our customer safety is priority and therefore we will be going above and beyond the guidelines at any given time in the year ahead. Whilst some tours commence in Winchester, Salisbury and Romsey (direct line from London) you also have the option to make you own way to the hotel. We will help you find the best solution to join a tour.
We are looking forward to welcoming returning and new customers in 2021.
