St Nicholas Fayre York
York is one of the UK’s most popular cities to visit thanks to its well-preserved historic buildings, beautiful green spaces, and a spot at the confluence of the Ouse and Foss rivers. You’ll find charming cafes and lovely shops dotted around secret alleyways, lively cocktail bars located along cobbled streets and fine dining restaurants like Andrew Pern’s The Star Inn The City overlooking the river. The city lies between the North York Moors and Yorkshire Wolds so is surrounded by lovely countryside and there are lots of things to do in York.
Day 4 - A hearty Yorkshire breakfast before setting off back to the local area. A comfort stop will be made en route to interchange.
