A full day for you to explore everything Durham has to offer. Cost £24 per person. Friday 23rd April-SILVERDALE & ARNSIDE- A new destination for us, but one were often asked about. This area is a bit of an unknown gem on the North West coast of Lancashire and we are sure you will enjoy this day out. Cost £17 pp. Friday 14th May- WHITBY & NORTH YORKSHIRE RAILWAY- Following the success of this excursion two years ago we are going again. However this time the intention is to go to Whitby first (subject to the rail timetable being as this year) and after a few hours exploring put you on the train and collect you at Pickering for the journey home. Cost £31 pp including the train fare. Friday 4th June- BEVERLEY & BRIDLINGTON- This excursion combines two of East Yorkshires premier tourist spots. The historic market town of Beverley with it’s magnificent cathedral, and other notable churches as well as the “North Bar” contrast with the popular resort of Bridlington. Something for everyone to enjoy. Cost £22 pp. Tuesday 22nd June- BAKEWELL & WELL DRESSING- A chance to visit this lovely Peak District town and then on to a village to see a “well dressing”.

A tradition that has been going for over 600 years. Cost £19 pp. Wednesday 14th July- BARNSDALE GARDENS, OAKHAM- Made famous by the late Geoff Hamilton from BBC’s Gardeners World Barnsdale is made up of around 38 separate gardens for you to explore and enjoy.

This is the North’s answer to Chelsea and Hampton Court and is a must for anyone that appreciates anything to do with gardens. Cost £39 pp including admission. Friday 13th August- DARLINGTON SUMMER MARKET- Yet another new destination. We have only recently become aware of this and 2010 will be it’s fourth year.

You can either spend the whole day enjoying Scarborough or break you day up by going to the 2 hour concert in the afternoon. The concerts do sell out quite quickly so you need to book early to ensure obtaining a ticket. Cost £21 pp- an extra £6.50 for the concert. Wednesday 13th October- YORKSHIRE DALES TOUR- We close our excursion programme with an old favourite. We take in some of the prettiest villages in the Dales as well as some of the more famous landmarks.

Cost £14 pp. Wednesday 1st December- CHATSWORTH HOUSE AT CHRISTMAS- Always popular we pay our annual visit to Chatsworth with all it’s splendour at Christmas. Cost £28 pp including admission.
