Castle Howard - A day out, with discounted admission!
Following the success of the Castle Howard Shuttle Service in summer 2007, we will run this service again throughout the summer of 2008.
Buses on the Castle Howard Shuttle connect with journeys from Leeds, Tadcaster and York, and with journeys from the coast.
Additionally, on Mondays to Fridays throughout the
summer, we will run a direct service between Scarborough and Castle Howard.
New buses
We have invested over £2 million in 10 brand new double deck buses, which entered service in spring 2008. This investment has made it possible for us to run all journeys with double deck buses, providing much needed additional capacity for our increasing number of customers.
Holiday Arrangements
On Monday 26th May and Monday 25th August we will run a Saturday service.
