Wednesday

We head north to the East Lancs Railway, where we step on board one of the traditional, Pullman-style carriages - just like those on the Orient Express - and we will transport you back to when dining by train was the height of luxury. As you steam through the charming Lancashire countryside soaking up the picturesque panoramas, we will treat you to an indulgent meal and an experience you will never forget. In the afternoon we continue to our hotel for dinner and our
2-night stay.

Thursday

Join us today as we head to Leighton Hall in Carnforth. On arrival you will be treated to tea or coffee and mince pies in front of an open fire and will then be given a Guided Tour of the home of the famous Gillow furniture making family. Of course, the House will be dressed for Christmas and will give guests a glimpse of nostalgic Christmases gone by in the wonderful estate. Then, it is a short journey to Bay View Garden Centre, for free time in their Christmas Shop, plant area and restaurant.

Friday

Manchester's award-winning Christmas Markets return this winter offering mouth-watering international food, drinks and delicately crafted Yuletide gifts in the heart of this buzzing city.
