Introduction:

My passion for Yorkshire is as big as the county itself. I was born and raised in this wonderful part of the world and look forward to sharing it with our visitors.

I am fortunate to live in-between the Yorkshire Dales and the North York Moors with York, Leeds and Harrogate just on my doorstep. I am close to the World of James Herriot in Thirsk and am well placed to show you 'Herriot country' as I spend a good deal of time at our family cottage near Hawes in Wensleydale.

I have travelled extensively around Europe and the UK taking group tours and visited many Cathedrals around the world taking choirs to sing in many of them! However, my favourite will always be York Minster and I am proud to be an accredited guide there. I have encountered many great tour guides on my travels who have inspired me to want to show off my own backyard and heritage!
