Tour Overview
Make your Christmas one to remember on this wonderful festive break to rural Chollerford in the North East.
Itinerary
Day 1
Local departure by coach or home connect service, then on to Chollerford and our hotel for four nights. We enjoy a mulled wine with a mince pie on arrival to get us into the Christmas spirit.
Day 2 Christmas Eve In Newcastle
Location: Christmas Eve in Newcastle
Today we visit the vibrant city of Newcastle. Famous for its industrial heritage, its brown ale, popular nightlife and distinct ‘Geordie’ accent, there’s a lot to do in Newcastle. It began life as a Roman fort on Hadrian’s Wall in 122AD and from there has developed into a cosmopolitan city. Visit one of Newcastle’s many museums and galleries, the Castle, or the Gateshead Millennium Bridge, an unusual structure spanning the River Tyne. Of course there are plenty of shops that are perfect for some last minute Christmas shopping, and many restaurants and pubs to enjoy.
Day 3 Christmas Day At Leisure
Location: Christmas Day at leisure
Merry Christmas! Relax in Chollerford, open some presents, tuck into a traditional turkey dinner, and enjoy the festive atmosphere in the hotel with your fellow travellers.
Day 4 Boxing Day In Hexham
Location: Boxing Day in Hexham
This morning we take a trip to nearby Hexham, an ancient market town. Hexham Abbey is a Grade I listed building built in 674AD and is boasts stunning architecture. Wander through the winding streets, visit one of the many galleries, or browse the eclectic independent shops. We return to the hotel for a festive cream tea.
Day 5
We depart the hotel this morning, filled with magical Christmas memories, and return home.
