Look for that special gift at the many stalls selling handcrafted decorations and curios, tuck into an indulgent seasonal treat and warm up with some hot chocolate! Afterwards, we re-join the coach for our journey home.
Leeds
The vibrant and popular city of Leeds attracts more visitors a year than many traditional seaside resorts and as the only city outside of London with its own repertory theatre, opera house and ballet company, it's easy to see why.
Taking a coach holiday to this cultured metropolis can be a great way to explore the many sights on offer.
