Why not come and experience Bedale's fine cobbled, Georgian-fronted market place, filled with the stalls, sounds and smells of Bedale Market. The market hosts a range of local suppliers offering fresh food, locally baked bread and cakes, household supplies, clothes, cards, crafts and other goods to attract the shopper. Bedale Market is truly at the heart of the community. We then travel on to Asygarth Falls. Aysgarth Falls are a triple flight of waterfalls, surrounded by woodland and farmland, carved out by the River Ure over an almost one-mile stretch on its descent to mid-Wensleydale in the Yorkshire Dales of England, near the village Aysgarth....more info

Join us on this day trip by coach to the coastal town of Bridlington with its sandy beaches, award winning promenades and historic harbour.

Once again, Scarborough is set to host one of the country’s most spectacular Armed Forces Day celebrations, bringing together communities, service personnel, and visitors from across the UK. The seaside town will come alive with vibrant parades, thrilling air displays, and a wide range of activities designed to honour the dedication and sacrifice of the armed forces.

From marching bands echoing along the promenade to aircraft soaring overhead in breathtaking displays, the event promises a powerful blend of tradition and excitement. Families can explore military exhibits, meet service members, and take part in interactive experiences that showcase life in the forces, past and present.

More than just a celebration, the day serves as a meaningful tribute—an opportunity for the public to show appreciation for those who serve, both at home and abroad. With its stunning coastal backdrop and lively atmosphere, Scarborough once again proves why it is a fitting host for such a significant national occasion.

Peasholm Park has a tranquil lake and in the summer months people can hire boats of all sorts to enjoy the water at close quarters. Boats include traditional rowing boats and canoes but pedaloes with dragon heads are available too and these prove to be very popular with summer visitors and locals alike. If you don't fancy pedaling then go for a sail in the Swan launch where you can relax on the water and let someone else steer the boat. There is a bandstand in the middle of the lake and music concerts which are free of charge can often be heard during the summer season. During the tourist season there are two cafes where hot and cold drinks can be purchased and, of course, ice cream, plus sandwiches and full meals if wanted. What a beautiful place to sit sipping your coffee, looking at the lake whilst listening to the music. If you prefer, you can bring your own picnic. There are plenty of places to sit and enjoy it. There is an island in the centre of the lake and a bridge leading across to it allows the visitor to explore the island with a path leading round it or by climbing up to the top with its impressive pagoda. The park has been designed with an oriental theme and there is much evidence of this as you wander through its pathways....more info
