Once booked, simply ensure you're at the pickup point at the chosen time, you do not need to show proof of purchase as your name will be on our passenger list.
Where possible we will try to honour your seating preference.
We typically leave our destinations at around 4pm-5.30pm depending on the location and this will be confirmed with you nearer the time.
On our longer trips we will ensure we have at least one service station stop each way so you can make use of the toilet and refreshment facilities on site. The coach does not have an onboard toilet.
ABOUT OUR DESTINATION
Come and join the celebrations this August in the beautiful Yorkshire Dales!
We’ll have amazing scarecrows, amazing cakes and probably some amazingly erratic weather!
We’re beyond excited and can’t wait to see you. It will be business as usual: same wacky and wonderful scarecrows, same beautiful scenery and views, same gorgeous cakes and soup, and same great value. We aim to give you a wonderful family day out that really won’t break the bank. In fact, bring a picnic and the whole day will cost you about a fiver for all the family.
We’re quite technologically advanced and have card readers in the village hall and on the stalls, but we do ask for cash in the car parks, as our internet signal might be a bit flakey, so please bring a little cash to get you through the day.
