No Experience Required
You step into an English morning with the warm stone of Bath receding in the rear-view mirror and the map of centuries ahead. By the time the coach eases into a village lane, damp grass still clinging to the moat walls, the day has already begun to unfurl: a moated 14th‑century ruin daring you to explore its collapsed towers, a grand country house with living rooms that have received monarchs, and the soaring nave of a 13th‑century cathedral that keeps one of the original 1215 Magna Carta copies under guard.
