Day 1. Sunday We depart and travel to Stratford upon Avon Victorian Christmas Market which boasts around 100 unique stalls, all full of colours, sounds and the irresistible aromas of Christmas time. There will be an abundance of seasonal gifts, food, and entertainment. This charming Tudor town built on the banks of the Avon River is best known as the birthplace of William Shakespeare and is packed with history and heritage. We depart later this afternoon for the journey to the outskirts of Stratford upon Avon and the Stratford Manor Hotel. This evening enjoy a three-course evening meal.
Day 2. Monday We depart after breakfast and visit Warwick Castle. Dating back to 914, Warwick Castle has stood as an impressive Medieval Fortress on the banks of the river Avon for the last 1100 years. Attacked in 1264, besieged in 1642 and damaged by fire in 1871, the castle has survived the changing fortunes of history and remains one of the most well-preserved Medieval castles in the UK. A warm winter welcome awaits you, with a host of Christmas attractions including the fabulous State Rooms with all the elegant festive decorations. We depart later this afternoon to make our journey home.
