COACH HOLIDAYS TO THE PENNINES

A selection of escorted holidays and tours to the Pennines by coach

Commonly described as the backbone of England, this unbroken range of mountains and hills in the north of the country stretches 250 miles, running from Derbyshire to Northumberland, and cutting between the counties of Yorkshire and Lancashire.

This picturesque landscape features deep valleys and heather clad moorland, ancient woodland, rambling streams and pretty waterfalls, and is dotted with tight-knit communities in welcoming towns and villages. 

Encompassing such a vast and open space means the Pennines are home to an abundance of wildlife and the area is extremely popular with both bird watchers and ramblers. 

There are several walks, varying in difficulty and length, that offer the opportunity to spot red and black grouse, peregrines, red kites, and buzzards.

Experience the best of the Pennines on a Grand UK coach holiday. Enjoy seamless full coach travel, expert guidance from a Tour Manager, and hand-picked half-board hotels. 
Plus, all excursions and admission fees listed on the itinerary are included.
