1940’S & Nostalgia Breaks by Coach

1940's Specials & Nostalgia Breaks

Step back in time to the 1940s with one of our special themed weekend breaks. 

Experience the nostalgia of a bygone era with activities, events and entertainment that will transport you back to the wartime era. 

Why not really get into the spirit and join us in your own 1940s period costume? 

Book a 1940s weekend break in the hilltop village of Haworth in Yorkshire, nestled in the stunning South Pennines. The village is truly transformed to celebrate the 1940s with vintage vehicles, classic cars, re-enactments and live music performances. 

Take a stroll along the quaint cobbled streets in the village to discover all that this charming destination has to offer. Visit the local shops and cafés where you’ll find traditional sweets, delicious homemade cafés and vintage clothing.  

It’s a not-to be-missed event in the Haworth calendar. 

Or why not join us as we visit Brighouse’s 1940s weekend? 

Attracting thousands of people every year, this themed weekend within this Yorkshire market town includes music from the era, vehicle displays, boat trips and much more. You might even be lucky enough to see a wartime plane flyover! 

All our breaks include coach travel, hotel accommodation on a bed & breakfast or dinner, bed and breakfast basis, and excursions.
