Set on a natural stage just outside of Bishop Auckland, Kynren is a unique and amazing show.  It is an immersive live performance that takes the audience on a journey through 2,000 years of British history, featuring a cast of hundreds of volunteers including live animals, and jaw-dropping special effects. Ranking as 5 star on Trip Advisor - does it live up to the hype?

Sarah, our Sales and Marketing Executive, went along in September to the last show of 2023 to find out.

The Ashley and Newey office is based in Darlington, County Durham. The town is famous for the Stockton to Darlington Railway - the first public railway to use steam locomotives in 1825.

In the run-up to the 200-year anniversary of the railway, a new Head of Steam Visitor Centre is due to open in the town. To commemorate this and the region’s railway heritage, Ashley was excited to get back in the driving seat. He’s been the driving force behind a brand new tour for 2024 - Time Travellers Retreat and Journeys of the North.

Our sales team was pleased to join almost 100 delegates at the CTA Summer Networking event in Hertfordshire at the end of July 2023

The meeting was sponsored by Visit Herts and included coach operators and industry suppliers from across the country. Hosted at the wonderful DoubleTree by Hilton London Elstree hotel – a familiar hotel to Ashley & Newey - located close to Elstree Studios. It was an excellent opportunity to meet the people behind the places and a great source of new ideas for 2024 and beyond. 

Highlights from the event include:
