PAIGNTON - The English Riviera<br />

From<br />

£215<br />

Famous for its long sandy beaches, level promenade and colourful pier, Paignton lies on England’s beautiful<br />

English Riviera on Devon’s southern coast. After the arrival of the railway this fishing village was transformed and<br />

became a favourite retreat for the Victorians. The long and flat seafront esplanade offers lovely views across<br />

Torbay with leisure facilities for the visitor. The town has some lovely public gardens and good shopping with an<br />

abundance of cafes and restaurants.<br />

With your free time you may like to visit the excellent Paignton Zoo on the outskirts of town or catch a bus along<br />

the coast road to the neighbouring towns of Torquay or Brixham. For those who like to explore, Paignton lies on<br />

the fantastic South West Coast Path with a chance to enjoy a coastal stroll and catch a bus back to the comfort of<br />

the hotel! Plenty of lovely excursion destinations in the area.<br />

Bletchley Park & IWM Duxford From £115<br />

Visiting two destinations which<br />

played such a huge part in our<br />

wartime history, this short break will<br />

appeal to those with a healthy<br />

interest in Britain’s history.<br />

In the past few years the story of the<br />

top secret code breaking facility at<br />

Bletchley Park in Buckinghamshire<br />

has been thrust in to the public<br />

consciousness with a string of<br />

television dramas and a superb film<br />

starring Benedict Cumberbatch.<br />

IWM Duxford is home to an<br />

impressive collection of over two<br />

hundred aircraft as well as tanks,<br />

military vehicles and maritime craft.<br />

Explore the former RAF fighter<br />

station that was used during both<br />

the First and Second World Wars.<br />

DAY 1 After being<br />

collected from your local pick point<br />

the tales of spies and strategic deception. There are plenty of different activities and exhibitions, from wartime toys<br />

to working computers, a wartime mini cinema to an outstanding Churchill collection. We allow around 6 hours at<br />

We want you to be as happy as possible from the moment you select your<br />

holiday until you return home. Along with the hotels which we use, we try our<br />

very best to make your holiday as enjoyable as possible. To help you to make<br />

the right selection and for what you can expect from us, please take a<br />

moment to read the following points.<br />

LUGGAGE<br />

suitcase size per person is 70 x 50 x 23cm. The<br />

maximum luggage weight per person is 20kg. A<br />

served basis when you book your holiday with<br />

HOTELS<br />

We offer a range of hotel<br />

accommodation which have different<br />

levels of comfort, facilities and quality.<br />

When selecting your holiday please<br />

ensure that the quality will match your<br />

requirements. This is generally related<br />

to the cost of the holiday but if you have<br />

any specific requirements please talk to<br />

our staff who will be able to help.<br />

Some of our hotels have chosen not to<br />

be members of the RAC/AA and as<br />

such are not star rated. This is not<br />

necessarily an indication of a lower<br />

standard of accommodation.<br />

If you have special requirements please notify us as soon as possible. The<br />

hotel will be notified before your arrival but please remember that rooms are<br />

allocated by the hotels.<br />

Rooms for Single Occupancy are in high demand and very often are sold out.<br />

Some hotels charge a supplement for these rooms, the cost of which is<br />

indicated in this brochure.<br />

We try to indicate all the room and hotel facilities for each hotel within the<br />

information in this brochure but cannot accept liability for any alterations<br />

made by the hotel before our arrival. Sometimes amenities such as swimming<br />

pools and lifts may be out of service whilst entertainment may be curtailed,<br />

altered or cancelled due to hotel number.<br />

Hot drink making facilities are not normally available in Continental hotel<br />

bedrooms but are usually available at the bar/café.<br />

When travelling abroad, you should expect the food to be served in the<br />

national custom and therefore different to British cuisine. For some hotels,<br />

particularly overnight hotels the restaurant will serve a set menu. If, when you<br />

are at the hotel, you require an alternative this is normally available but may<br />

incur an additional cost for you.<br />

These days, many hotels are excellent at providing Special Diets. Please let<br />

us know as soon as possible so they can make preparations early.<br />

Many meals are taken as a group in the restaurants and usually involve<br />

sharing tables with 2 or more other diners in our group.<br />

HOLIDAY ITINERARIES AND SUITABILITY<br />

We pride ourselves on the planning of our holidays to provide an exciting and<br />

enjoyable holiday experience. Many are planned months in advance and may<br />

require adjustment to the itineraries due to changes at destinations or<br />

attractions.<br />

Our itineraries are displayed in the brochure and you should carefully<br />

consider suitability before booking your holiday. You are, of course, quite<br />

welcome not to join any particular excursion during your holiday.<br />

Provided we are informed before departure, we are happy to take manual<br />

walking aids and folding wheelchairs up to 15kg in weight. Unfortunately, we<br />

are not able to carry any electric wheelchairs or scooters, although these are<br />

often available to hire at the destination.<br />

HOLIDAY CANCELLATION<br />

If we have to cancel a holiday this is always done well in advance of your<br />

departure date and a full refund is given.<br />

Due to the contract obligations and financial commitments we have with<br />

hotels if you have to cancel your holiday you will have to pay cancellation<br />

charges. These are based on the following scale depending on how close to<br />

departure we receive your cancellation. More than 42 days - Deposit only, 42-<br />

28 days - 30%, 27-14 days - 45%, 13-7 days - 60%, Less than 7 days - 100%.<br />

However, if you do cancel more than 42 days before your departure date we<br />

will transfer your deposit less a £10 per person administration fee to another<br />

holiday currently available.<br />

We do advise you to take out travel insurance to cover any of your loses.<br />

LAST MINUTE BARGAINS<br />

If you want to receive last minute bargains, special<br />

offers, extra dates and more please join our<br />

mailing list by either filling in the form on the<br />

website or contacting the office.
