In the evening before dinner there will be a drinks party where you will meet your fellow guests.

Tuesday
Our full day today takes us inland towards Kirkby Moorside, and on our way we visit a most beautiful minster tucked away in a tiny valley. From Kirkby we make our way to Lastingham for a stop to view the church with its 800 year old crypt. Our next call is to the famous Quaker village of Hutton le Hole where we stop for lunch. From here we cross Rosedale Moor with spectacular views in all directions as we make our way slowly back to Scarborough.

Wednesday
Leaving Scarborough we make for the market town of Helmsley where you have the opportunity of visiting the Castle or the Walled Garden or just wander around this gorgeous small town. We have lunch here before making our way to Rievaulx Abbey and Terraces. Our day out continues to Sutton Bank and Kilburn, then Byland Abbey as we make our way back to our hotel.

Thursday
Our first stop today is Pickering where we board the North Yorks Moors Railway for the journey to Goathland of “Heartbeat” fame. Here you are met by The Goat, but have plenty of time to explore this famous village and find the places in the TV series. Our journey continues over the moors, where larger vehicles cannot go, for an afternoon stop, before we head back to Scarborough.

Friday
A relaxing morning, before a later than usual start and we make our way to Whitby for a lunchtime stop and to explore this very famous port. In the afternoon we drive to the cliff top to see Whitby Abbey before making our way to Robin Hoods Bay. We return to Scarborough by a quiet coast road.
