Great Holiday ideas from frome travel company

With this year’s summer holiday becoming a distant memory, the launch of the new Lesmon Travel 2020 holiday brochure couldn’t have come at a better time. 

Whether you are looking for a short break not too far from home, or a longer break in sunnier climes, then look no further than Lesmon Travel.

Company owner Mark Wye said, “With over 35 years’ experience of delivering great value, quality coach holidays with that personal touch, I am sure that the new brochure will have something to appeal to everyone.”

Lesmon Travel is a family-run coach holiday company based in Frome and has been offering UK and European coach holidays for over 30 years. The company is now run by Mark and Brigitte, who have taken over from Brigitte’s parents, following their well-earned retirement.

Mark said, “In 2019 and 2020, we will be running a wide choice of tours to both UK and Continental European destinations.

“Our European trips  include a fantastic tour of ‘Scenic Switzerland visiting the lakes and mountains of the Swiss Alps; a nine-day Austria trip which takes in a ride on the 127 year-old Achensee Steam Cog, a scenic lake cruise on the ‘Fjord of the Alps’ lake, a visit to Innsbruck – twice host to the Winter Olympic Games – a visit to the impressive Krimml falls, the fifth largest waterfall in the world; and a scenic drive to the mighty Grossglockner, Austria’s highest mountain.

“There are also Christmas Markets trips to Bruges, Brussels & Lille or how about sipping a glass of warm mulled wine while strolling through a continental Christmas Market in Liege, Aachen or Cologne?

“Closer to home, we have fantastic holidays in Bournemouth, Ilfracombe, Blackpool, Liverpool. Lincoln or how about Mother’s Day in  Tenby or a visit to three of the UK’s top Christmas markets in  Winchester, Chichester and Southampton.

“We also have an eight day trip to Scotland’s Far North including John O’Groats & Orkney Islands; it’s as far as you can go on a coach without leaving the country!

“We believe in making your holiday that extra bit special by providing a very personal level of service and, we like to think, a unique holiday experience, from our complimentary door-to-door pick up service, right through to our fully inclusive excursions on all tours.

“We have a relatively small catchment area, so our pick-ups for each tour generally take around an hour from start to finish, something many other companies simply cannot deliver.

“The coaches we use for our holidays are typically only a year or two old, and have all the features you would expect from such modern vehicles, such as climate control, a toilet and tea and coffee facilities. We don’t have any overnight travel on our tours, and make regular stops on the journeys, to make sure you get to enjoy your holiday in full, from the first day to the last”.

Mark had over 20 years’ experience of delivering first-rate customer service in his previous career as a store manager in the food retail industry.

“While the products are different, the importance of good customer services is just as vital now, if not even more so,” he added. “Peace of mind is also important to people booking their holiday and with this in mind, we are fully bonded with ABTOT.

“We still have limited availability on the tours for the rest of 2019, and the 2020 tours have started selling really well, so give us a call so you don’t miss out.
