Experience Days in Yorkshire
Yorkshire - Experience Days
Welcome to the shop. I've brought together a whole selection of experience days in Yorkshire from different merchants
all over the web, the common factor being that they all happen in Yorkshire. I've tried a few of
these myself over the past couple of years and can guarantee they make brilliant gifts. They're even
better as last minute gifts, because with most of them you can print off a gift certificate at home.
These are days at race tracks in Yorkshire (mainly Elvington) driving some of the most amazing performance
cars known to man. Ferrari, Lamborghini, Aston Martin, Caterham 7's and more. These
are fantastic fun, and make great corporate entertainment days as well.
Being pampered can make life seem a whole lot better sometimes - and these days
at luxury spas around Yorkshire, cover facials, massages, saunas, steam rooms,
and generally just totally relaxing in luxury surroundings.
Ideal for those with no sense of their own mortality. Bungee jumping and rope courses
are available at various places in Yorkshire. Leave your brain behind before engaging
in this activity.
Rally driving is one of the most skilled forms of motor sport. Unlike the tedium
of formula 1, with rally driving every situation is unique, and learning to cope
with these situations is really beneficial to driving skills as a whole. Locations
for these days out are generally in North Yorkshire.
Now this is my favourite type of driving experience. Off-road driving in landrovers
and quad bikes is tremendous fun. I've written up a quad-bike day
near Thirsk that I did last year, and that's a pretty good guide to what these
sort of experiences are like.
Swinton Park is one of the grandest stately homes in Yorkshire, near Masham. Nowadays
it's a top class luxury hotel and conference centre. Throughout the year they run
events like garden design days, wine appreciation lunches and jewel appreciation
days. It's also home to a renowned cookery school featuring Rosemay Shrager, with
courses on seafood, modern british and mediterranean cookery. There are even special
courses for children and men.
Bird of prey handling days are absolutely amazing experiences. I did one near
castleford last year and it was unforgettable. On my day out, I flew a
Harris Hawk, a European Eagle Owl and a peregrine. These are available at fantastic
locations in the Dales.
Thsi is where I've added everything that just didn't fit anywhere else. Thinks like
ghost hunting, ice climbing, pole dancing and lots more.
What on earth is that you ask? Well, Zorbing is being strapped into a giant plastic
ball and rolled downhill. This particular brannd of idiocy used to be confined to
New Zealand, but it's now broken out and reached Leeds. Why anyone would pay money
to be treated like this is beyond me, but they do as many an MP can testify.
For when the batteriers are run down and life's just a little too much, these breaks
are guaranteed to refresh, revive ans invigorate. Locations all over Yorkshire.
Once upon a time parachuting involved jumping out of an aeroplane. Now there's
also indoor parachuting in Sheffield as well. Suppose you have to find something
to do with all those disused steel works.
Various flying things at various locations in Yorkshire. helicopter sightseesing
trips, acrobatics in Tiger Moths, Microlight flights, gliding , flying lessons.
I'd particularly recommend the helicopter trips, as in many of them you can choose
your own route, and might even be able to fly over your own house.
