Yorkshire: Art and Landscape

May 31 - June 5, 2026

6 days | 5 nights

This itinerary is based in the north of England where the lovely landscape of the Yorkshire Dales is filled with ruined abbeys, stately mansions and beautiful gardens. Three legendary British artists were born and raised here: Henry Moore, Barbara Hepworth and David Hockney. Today Yorkshire is home to some of the most important collections of their work, and also a thriving nexus for contemporary art. We’ll enjoy a range of gardens, including private guided visits to commissioned projects designed by Piet Oudolf and Tom Stuart-Smith.

The first nights will be based at a comfortable boutique hotel in the city of York and the latter part of the trip will be set in the North Yorkshire Moors where we stay in a comfortable traditional inn.

Sussex & Kent: Bloomsbury Art and Gardens

June 7 - 12, 2026

6 days | 5 nights

Between London and the South coast is rolling chalk downland, home to some of the most romantic gardens in the world. In the early 20th century writers and artists from the legendary Bloomsbury Group retreated here.  Their fluid approach to integrating art and pattern throughout their homes and gardens inspired highly original designs such as we see at Charleston and Sissinghurt.  Other notable gardens are also included, along with galleries that offer a fresh perspective on Modern British art.
