What to expect

Wave goodbye to Manchester as you delve into the fantastical realm of literature. Your first port of call is Haworth, the hillside abode of the renowned Brontë family. Meander through the charming village where the Brontë sisters once resided, absorbing its rich history.

Depending on availability, a visit to The Brontë Parsonage Museum might be possible. Discover the cobblestone streets, boutiques, and coffee houses that sparked the sisters' creativity. For enthusiasts of The Railway Children, a trip to the steam railway at Oakworth Station, featured in the series, awaits. Savour lunch at a local café or opt for a takeaway to relish amidst the scenic surroundings. Next, you'll journey through the awe-inspiring landscapes of the Yorkshire Dales, where hills, moorlands, and limestone formations paint an unforgettable picture. Your subsequent stop is Grassington, recognised as the fictional Darrowby in 'All Creatures Great & Small'.

Take a moment to explore this town and make a short detour to Linton Falls. Your adventure continues to Aysgarth Falls, a three-tiered waterfall celebrated for inspiring poets and artists alike. You might recognise it from Robin Hood: Prince of Thieves. Following this, you'll visit Wensleydale Creamery, where indulgence awaits. Your final destination is the remarkable Ribblehead Viaduct, a Victorian engineering wonder offering views of the Three Peaks mountains. After capturing some memorable photos, you'll return to Manchester.
