Choir tour to Yorkshire – 31st May to 3rd June 2018:
Tour to York staying at The Parsonage Hotel Escrick and singing in Selby Abbey.
A coach would leave Thame at around 9.30, arriving in York early afternoon. W
e would then have 3 nights at The Parsonage Hotel, Escrick. The Parsonage is absolutely perfect for us. It’s a country house hotel with lovely grounds, a spa and a gym, and more importantly it’s close to the York Park & Ride and for those who like shopping(!), the Designer Outlet. There is also a bus service outside the hotel to the City of York. Please have a look at their website at http://www.parsonagehotel.co.uk.
Cost of the tour: until we have a better idea of numbers we can’t produce an accurate budget, but we’re pretty confident that the total cost for the weekend won’t exceed £340 per head. A deposit would be payable next term.
So if you would like to go to York and maybe bring a partner, spouse or friend, please can you let us know now. A list will be put out so that you an express your interest. If you miss seeing one of them let please contact Sandra Claridge directly to express your interest.
1st December 2018 – concert
