Sometimes the best places to truly unwind and disconnect are along quiet country lanes, where the only things you’ll find en route are rustic farmlands, fragrant orchards and rolling vineyards. It’s idyllic moments like these that are worth savouring. This is why we’re excited to introduce our Classic Countryside collection that showcases some of the most tranquil countryside routes across the UK and Europe.
So why not take the opportunity to wander along quaint lakeside paths towards babbling brooks and charming sandstone villages that inspired literary greats on our Castles, Hadrian’s Wall & the Lake District? Or discover Tuscany’s finest vineyards, ancient olive groves and medieval hilltop towns on our Tuscan Hills & Chianti Wines walking holiday, where you’ll enjoy three hand-picked wine-tasting experiences. If you’re looking for a gentle ride through idyllic rural landscapes, our Cycle Champagne & Burgundy – Premium Adventure takes you along the iconic Côte de Nuits and Côte de Beaune wine routes, where you’ll pass rolling hills and mustard fields while stopping to visit storybook châteaux.
