A Great Combination

Enjoy a weekend away in one of the great cities of the medieval world - York, a 'city to suit all tastes'. From the magnificent Gothic Minster to the narrow streets of the Shambles, lively with chic cafés and specialist shops, York is a treasure house for visitors. September is also the perfect time to celebrate the year's growing achievements and an included day out to the Harrogate Autumn Flower Show (located at Newby Hall not Harrogate!) promises both beautiful floral displays as well as exceptional produce from the allotment. What a great combination - garden inspiration for both the expert and occasional gardener and 2000 years of history in beautiful, compact York on the River Ouse.
