Day 1 We make our way to Dorchester for some free time to get refreshments before continuing to Chard where our hotel is based. After check-in, have some time to settle in and get ready for dinner. There is entertainment every evening of your stay.
Day 2 Spend the morning at Clarks Shopping Village Designer Outlet where you might find a bargain, or visit the historic, yet quirky, town of Glastonbury. The afternoon is free at the hotel to enjoy the many activities and facilities available, or to relax in the house and grounds which were the setting for TV’s ‘To The Manor Born’.
Day 3 After breakfast, join the coach to the beautiful Regency town of Sidmouth. Spend some free time in the town, or head to the Donkey Sanctuary where hundreds of rescued donkeys are lovingly looked after. Don’t forget to look out for Drizzle – Woods’ own sponsored and much loved donkey.
Day 4 Leaving Chard, we travel to Salisbury for shopping and time for lunch. The town has a wonderful cathedral, many individual shops and pleasant places to eat. We then make our way along the coast toward home.
The Regency style elegant mansion of Cricket St Thomas is set within glorious, landscaped gardens, and is the centre for our four-star standard hotel. Bedrooms, located in the Walled Garden or the Courtyard, are spacious and comfortable with TV, telephone, WiFi, hairdryer, ironing facilities and hospitality tray. Facilities include croquet, French boules, bowls, air rifle shooting, indoor swimming pool, spa, sauna and steam rooms. There is a lift to some rooms, and some walking is required on site.
