Set Off to Scotland
If you’re looking for rustic charm and grand historical architecture surrounded by picturesque scenery, then Edinburgh is the place for you. As you stroll around the cobbled streets of the Old Town, the iconic Edinburgh Castle looms overhead at the top of a rolling hill. Go for a walk up the Royal Mile and let it lead you straight to this fantastic fortress. Just in case you’re still yearning for a beach retreat, this charming city also happens to be situated so close to the seaside that just a short drive will get you to one of its sandy shores. So, that’s all the more reason to head up the country for a few days and soak up the culture of the Scottish capital.
London Calling
From one capital to another, how about embarking on an unforgettable break in London, where you can enjoy dining out, shopping and sightseeing? Many of the sites here are instantly recognisable, such as Big Ben and Buckingham Palace, but they are certainly no less impressive up close. As well as popular landmarks, there are a number of hidden gems here, too. Explore an abandoned tube station, stop at a cafe by the canals at Little Venice or wander through the Japanese style Kyoto Garden in Holland Park and let any stresses simply melt away.
Discover Day Trips
While our various big metropolises hold plenty of activities to keep travellers busy for the entirety of their stay, one of the best things about a holiday in the UK is that you’re never far from other exciting attractions. Why not take advantage of this and journey out to somewhere completely different for an afternoon? You could uncover more of Scotland’s glorious countryside with a day out exploring the vast lochs in the Highlands, before returning to unwind in your comfortable hotel. Alternatively, step out of London and venture to the prestigious university city of Oxford, or the unique and mysterious Stonehenge.
Your Holiday Done Your Way
With so much to see and do, it’s important to save your energy as you absorb all of the incredible sights. Why not jump on a bus for a sightseeing tour? This way, you can sit back and relax while you’re whisked to all of the top spots in the area and you won’t have to worry about missing a thing. There’s no need for your break to be all hustle and bustle though; there are countless gorgeous green spaces that fill our towns across the UK. Take your time to relish every moment, savouring the local delicacies and the buzzing atmosphere.
