Travel company launches 2027 brochure with new range of trips

A local travel company has unveiled its 2027 brochure, promising a wide variety of trips across the UK.

The family-run  Lesmon Travel from Frome, which was started over 40 years ago by Les and Mon Price, is now run by their daughter Brigitte, who is continuing her parents’ tradition of personal, friendly service.

Brigitte says the 2027 programme has been designed with relaxation in mind. “All of the tours are UK-based, with as little travel time as possible from the hotel, so passengers can spend more time enjoying their holiday,” she explains.

Among the highlights are return visits to ABBA Voyage following last year’s sold-out tours and a short break in central London, so people can choose which attractions and shows they want to see.

There are also a couple of longer six-night tours to Derwentwater in the Lake District and Strathpeffer in Scotland, based on the hit TV show The Traitors.

The brochure also includes a five-night tour to Jersey, which requires only photo ID rather than a passport, making it an accessible option for all.

All tours are conducted on a luxury air-conditioned coach provided by another family business, AL Executive, complete with drinks machine and toilet facilities.

Brigitte said, “We are so pleased that Will is carrying on driving again next year, as he is such an excellent driver and so helpful to the passengers.

“Being a local company, he knows his way around the local area and with his 35 years of experience, he is always coming up with different places to stop en route to surprise the passengers.”

Lesmon Travel offers door-to-door service across Warminster, Westbury and Frome with pickups to nearby villages either by minibus or directly onto the coach, whichever is most suitable. Those outside the catchment area can park at their Fairfield Close base in Frome, space permitting.

Brigitte herself travels on all trips as courier, ensuring everything runs smoothly and serving hot drinks along the way.

She added, “I want to say a huge thank you to my daughter Harley for all her help this past year. I wouldn’t be able to do it without her and to my dad, Les, who still likes to help with pickups. Thanks also to all our loyal customers whose continuing support makes the job so worthwhile.”

A new website has been launched at www.lesmontravel.co.uk, with details of all the trips and you can call Brigitte on 07779 442024 for more information on any of the tours or to get your copy of the new brochure, which is also available in Frome Library or The Athenaeum in Warminster.
