YOUR ITINERARY
We depart from your selected pick-up point and travel to Shropshire. Our first stop will be Much Wenlock a stunningly beautiful medieval town it played a major part in the 19th century revival of the Olympic Games.
Today, Much Wenlock feels much more like a village than a town. Stroll around the town centre and it may seem you have stepped back fifty or more years. You won’t find any ‘big names’, but you will find a great selection of traditional shops, all offering good old-fashioned personal service. Much Wenlock is a place where folk still have time for you.
We then make a short journey to Bridgenorth for a two-course AGA carvery lunch, includes dessert and tea/coffee at the Ye Old Punch Bowl, the first AGA Carvery in the UK. Before our final stop at Shrewsbury. You have free time in Shrewsbury before we depart for home at approx. 4.30pm.
