A leisurely 3 nights in the Yorkshire Dales & English Lakes and GPS workshop.

We have had several requests from customers to have a 'get together' during the long winter months. So are pleased to say that we have arranged a three night break at our favourite hotel situated on the edge of the Yorkshire Dales and English Lakes.

The purpose of the break is threefold:

1. You will have the opportunity to meet us (Chris and Sharan) we're the new owners of White Rose Tours - we are keen to meet as many people as possible as we start our new venture.
2. I am sure many of us are still baffled by the weird and wonderful things that Garmin GPS can do, so we will be having a Friday morning workshop which will hopefully clarify things a little. 
3. A great opportunity during the long winter months to catch up with friends new and old. Dave, Val, Roy, Alison and John will also be in attendance.

Other than the GPS workshop there will be no fixed itinerary and everyone is free to explore on their own. We will put together some routes should you wish to use them, and of course we have the local knowledge to suggest places you may wish to visit. 

This is usually a popular event, so we have booked the whole hotel and hope you can join us whether it be on your bike or in the car. 

 

Tour prices are inclusive of the following
* 3 Nights en-suite accommodation
* 3 Evening meals (vegetarian option available)
* 3 Full regional Breakfasts
* 1/2 day GPX workshop
 

Accommodation

Your stay includes all evening meals and full regional breakfasts. 

  • Yorkshire Dales
  • Lake District

Thursday 8th February:  We avoid the Friday night rush by travelling today to our 3 star hotel on the outskirts of the beautiful Lake District, arriving in time for a traditional evening meal and to meet up with friends old and new.

Friday 9th February :This morning - for those that wish - we will be having a workshop on using the Garmin GPS  (please bring your own gps). To help us with this, we have secured the services of John Heath. John confesses to been an 'anorak' when it comes to all things Garmin and I am sure many of you will have seen his many posts on the internet providing help and advice. Anyone wishing just to attend the workshop on the day may do so for a small fee of £20 - please contact us direct. John will be staying with us all weekend so will be able to answer any queries you may have.

Saturday 10th February: Your time here is your own and your guides will be able to advise you on places to visit and things to see, with the Lake District, Yorkshire Dales, Forest of Bowland and Northern Pennines on our door step you really are spoilt for choice.   

Sunday 11th August : The 'get together'  finishes after breakfast, after which, we bid our farewells and return home.
