Coach holidays that don't cost the earth
Certified 100% Carbon Neutral
The British countryside offers some of the most diverse and interesting scenery in the world. Surprisingly, only about 6% of the UK is ‘built on’, which means there is a huge amount of countryside – both wild and maintained – for you to explore. At Leisuretime our countryside coach holidays take you over wild moors, through stunning valleys and to some of Britain’s prettiest and most scenic country spots at prices that are sometimes hard to believe. Throw in quaint rural villages, bustling market towns, a good choice of stately homes and, of course, those great British countryside institutions – the pub and the tearoom – and you really do have a recipe for a great holiday. And because Leisuretime offsets all of the carbon produced during your trip, you know you’ll also be doing your bit to keep our beautiful country green and very pleasant! Coach holidays in the countryside are the best way to relax and take in the views and serenity it has to offer - let Leisuretime take care of the journey and just enjoy!
