Explore Historic York on foot with Charlotte

When visiting York it’s easy to walk and drift around without really appreciating everything before you but more importantly what’s hiding behind that building or up that ginnal, a Yorkshire word for alley!

Step up, Charlotte, O'Gram! Charlotte is an expert on the city of York and offers a conducted walking tour around York. The tour has an informal nature unlike the stereotypical tour where the guide goes through the same old spiel every time!

Charlotte has agreed to offer "Walking tours around York" exclusively for our guests staying at Clifton Farm. Charlotte not only is a true Yorkshire lady having lived in Yorkshire for all her life but is involved in many other ways:

• Chairman of NADFAS York - National Association of Decorative & Fine Arts Societies
• Member of York Civic Trust
• Member of York Georgian Society
• Member of York City Art Gallery and fund-raising for the Art Fund
• Friends of Fairfax House Committee

If you want to visit York why not explore York for a couple of hours whilst staying at Clifton Farm, let us arrange for Charlotte to meet you for a walking, talking tour around this historically beautiful city.

In one of Charlotte’s many capacities, she is involved in raising money for York Minster. The masons and carvers of York Minster have to replace at least 2,500 stones just on the East Front alone at a cost of around £30 million. Charlotte’s only request would be that you give a generous donation to her for the "Sponsor a Stone" appeal for York Minster. To give you some guidance, Charlotte would be looking for a donation of £50 based on two to four guests from Clifton Farm. At the end of your walking tour you will really feel that you have discovered York and at the same time will have made a substantial contribution to the "York Minster Sponsor a Stone" appeal.

If you would like us to arrange for a "Walking Tour around York", please let us know as soon as possible so we are able to book Charlotte for an exclusive morning or afternoon "Walking Tour of York".
