About Us
Who We Are
​"Our reason for starting Briggate Travel was borne out of a desire to get under the skin of a destination and offer something out of the ordinary and truly memorable. Our company is small, and we have no desire to lose that personal contact with our travellers, and we will always take the time to get to know them and welcome them back for future travels with us."

​Briggate Travel's 3 Commitments For Your Peace Of Mind
01 Financial Protection & Security
The Association of Bonded Travel Organisers Trust Limited (ABTOT) provides financial protection under its ATOL Franchise and The Package Travel and Linked Travel Arrangements Regulations 2018 for Briggate Travel, a trading name of Ambrose & Rose Ltd., ABTOT number 5568, ATOL number 12621 and in the event of insolvency, protection is provided for the following:
-
non-flight packages;
-
flight inclusive packages that commence outside of the UK, which are sold to customers outside of the UK; and
-
flight inclusive packages, flight only and linked travel arrangements (LTAs) sold as a principal under the ABTOT ATOL Franchise.
ABTOT cover provides for a refund in the event you have not yet travelled or repatriation if you are abroad. Please note that bookings made by customers outside the UK are only protected by ABTOT when purchased directly with Briggate Travel.
In the unlikely event that you require assistance whilst abroad due to our financial failure, please call ABTOT’s 24/7 helpline on +44 (0)1702 811397 and advise you are a customer of an ABTOT protected travel company.

All the flights and flight inclusive holidays on this website are financially protected either by ABTOT or the ATOL scheme. When you pay for something protected by the ATOL scheme you will be supplied with an ATOL Certificate. Please ask for it and check to ensure that everything you booked (flights, hotels and other services) is listed on it. Please see our booking conditions for further information or for more information about financial protection and the ATOL Certificate go to: www.atol.org.uk/ATOLCertificate
02 Flexibility, Wherever Possible
We know that changes to plans can and sometimes must happen. In this instance, we commit to work with you, and to negotiate on your behalf with our suppliers to offer the greatest possible flexibility. However, not always will all changes be possible - but we promise to go into any negotiation with an open mind and to do the best for our clients.
​
03 Low Overheads, Lower Cost
We don't do this only for the love of travel, but we know that our travellers will always look out for the best value. Our overheads are small, but our buying power is strong, and we will ensure that we remain focused on value for money. We will also offer alternatives on request, so that your ideal destination can still be achieved, even if your first choice may not be in budget.

Thanks For The Photography
As anyone who is less than proficient with their photography knows, the proof of a great photograph is in how it helps us remember and relive the experience, or how it inspires us to go and see places and things first hand. We are so grateful to the many photographers who have kindly contributed their hard work and expertise, and who have allowed us to use their photography on this site and elsewhere, including (but not limited to):
