COACH TOURS l 2021 WELCOME l CLAIR'S OF DERBYSHIRE

Clair's of Derbyshire Coach Tours Brochure 2021 I'd like to say an extra special huge thank you to everyone who has SEATING PLAN SEATING PLAN travelled with us during 2020, at times we have been uncertain of what is going to come next, but we have made it through, with a great deal of support from you our valued and loyal customers and in no small part due to the understanding of the majority of our hotels and their amazing efforts in doing everything that they could possibly do to keep us all safe whilst we were on tour. It’s been wonderful to meet some new people and to get reacquainted with some old friends who were sorely missed during lockdown, The tours we have managed to complete this year have seemed that little bit sweeter because we were all so desperate for a break. I'm delighted at long last to introduce our 2021 brochure, I just couldn't bare to put it out incomplete and with some hotels not yet reopened I'm sure you can imagine it has been quite a task. Some of you have been busy sending in your destination suggestions and you will be pleased to see that we do listen to these ideas with Warners new in for this year as well as taking the leap abroad with Austria and WWI Battlefields. Whoever it was that suggested the Isle of Bute last year can give themselves a big pat on the back, with comments like "best holiday ever" I can't wait to do that one myself next year. A special mention has to go to the Channel View Hotel in Shanklin on the Isle of Wight for valiantly stepping into the breach in August and continuing to provide for us in October and we are looking forward to returning in February. Our Facebook followers will have noticed that my photography skills are improving (although not quite as good as Matt's) and we have been trying to keep you all up to date and entertained with our posts especially for those of you who have not yet ventured out, I do hope we didn't bore you too much with our cycling antics during lockdown. The layout in the brochure remains the same with the door to door holidays clearly marked as well as the ones with pick up points and we hope that you will find something that satisfies your destination needs as well as your budget. Mobile Booking Office GIFT VOUCHERS I'd like to say a massive thank you to the best Mum in the world for her gargantuan efforts during these trying times. Please note that we have You can purchase gift vouchers added new locations and Thanks is also required for Graham (the husband) for maintaining the in denominations of coaches to such a high standard (and putting up with me). amended days/times see £10, £20, £50 & £100 ideal for back cover of this brochure Once again a big thank you for your continued support.
