Day Excursions

A grand day out at one of the UK’s most visited attractions, the holiday home of Queen Victoria who said “It is impossible to imagine a prettier spot”. Ferry times are 11am out and 5pm return, arriving back at approx. 8pm.

With a comfort stop en route, we arrive in Aylesham with time to browse or grab a coffee before we board the narrow gauge steam train for the 18 mile journey through the Bure Valley to Wroxham. Then we drive to the beautiful village of Horning, where you will have time for lunch, before we board the superb Mississippi river boat, The Southern Comfort, for a 1½ hour cruise on the Norfolk Broads.

We make our annual pilgrimage to this excellent flower show, probably the most popular in our programme. It’s only a short drive to Hyde Hall where you will be dazzled by the gardens exuding an array of colour from the beautiful flowers.

Great Yarmouth is the premier seaside resort of East Anglia, with a fabulous golden sandy beach and dunes. Along the promenade you will find the famous Golden Mile, a paradise for people who enjoy traditional seaside attractions such as roller coasters, fun fairs, arcades and many more indoor and outdoor things to do.

Situated in West Sussex, why not spend a day in the quintessentially English seaside resort of Bognor.
