A beautiful hotel in a stunning location, Warner’s Cricket St Thomas offers the perfect break away. Enjoy lots of free time at the hotel to make the most of Warner’s wonderful mix of daily activities and nightly entertainment, whilst also exploring some of the local area on excursions including a cruise on the River Exe, Clarks Shopping Village or Glastonbury, and Sidmouth or the Donkey Sanctuary.
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.
Day 2 This morning we travel to the coastal town of Exmouth where we have a circular cruise on the calm and sheltered waters of the beautiful River Exe. From the Marina, cruise the peaceful waters up to near Powderham Castle and along to where the river opens out into the English Channel on Exmouth’s traditional seafront. See the stunning scenery, wildlife, and nature of the nationally renowned Exe Estuary.
Day 3 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.
Day 4 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.
Day 5 Leaving Chard, we travel to Salisbury for shopping and time for lunch. We then make our way along the coast, to our taxis and home.
