Scarborough, Whitby & Burton Agnes Hall

A warm Yorkshire welcome awaits you at this traditional seaside resort, said to be Britain's first seaside destination. The resort has retained the charm and style established in its Victorian heyday and it is no wonder visitors have been holidaying here for over 360 years.
There is plenty to do in Scarborough, with a bustling harbour, wonderful promenade, and popular shopping area. We will be staying at the popular Red Lea Hotel which always rates excellent with Roberts' customers.Monday: We depart the Travel Centre this morning and make our way to Scarborough with a stop en route, arriving at the hotel late afternoon.

Tuesday: This morning we visit the attractive village of Goathland, famous for its appearance (as Aidensfield), in the television series ‘Heartbeat’ and its role in the ‘Harry Potter’ films. Later, we visit the traditional seaside resort of Whitby, where you will find some of the best fish and chips around. Whitby wallows in history, including fishing, the jet industry (did you know that it’s still the best place in the world to find the gleaming black gemstone so beloved by the Victorians), and Captain Cook (who was born nearby, and whose famous ship the Endeavour was Whitby built).

Wednesday: This morning we board the coach for a visit to Burton Agnes Hall & Gardens an Elizabethan stately home that has stayed within the same family for more than four hundred years.

Thursday: Today is a free day to explore Scarborough. Why not browse the shops? You will find department stores, well-known high-street names and quirky boutiques and antique stores.

Friday: We bid a fond farewell to the hotel staff this morning as we make our way back to Hugglescote, with a stop en route.Red Lea Hotel***
