the UK, home to a wealth of natural splendour
If you’re looking to spend a few days surrounded by beautiful scenery, then you needn’t travel far: the UK is home to a wealth of natural splendour, and it’s distributed in such a way that just about anyone can reach at least one of them after a few hour’s drive. Or, if you feel like a road trip, you might string several short journeys together to create a tour of the countryside. With the help of the right motorhome insurance, you might take your accommodation with you.
The Cotswolds
There’s nowhere in the world quite like the Cotswolds. Covering around eight hundred square miles and five separate counties, it’s a mosaic of picturesque little villages nestled between gently rolling hills. If you’re walking, it’s a paradise: there are around three thousand miles of footpath and bridleway to cover.
Cornwall
Venture down to the southwestern tip of the country, and you’ll find a treasure trove of unspoilt beaches, rugged cliffsides, and breathtaking surf. It’s a part of the country with a unique culture, which extends from its food to its art scene. Come to Cornwall, in other words, and you’re stepping into a strange and yet slightly familiar world.
London
Naturally, if you haven’t paid a visit to the capital, then you owe it to yourself to do so. But even seasoned Londoners might find a few new surprises nestled around the city. After all, it’s a very big city that’s in a state of constant flux. New attractions are forever being developed, and existing ones are forever being improved upon. So, whether you’re looking to soak in the view from the top of the London Eye for the first time or nose around some obscure food festival or farmer’s market, London remains the place to do it.
Lake District
This sizeable national park is replete with gorgeous lakes (as one might expect). But those lakes are separated by stirring hillsides and wonderfully quaint little market towns. It’s a place that you could easily spend several weeks without exploring fully.
The Isle of Skye
The Isle of Skye is home to some of the most breathtaking landscapes in the country. Take a walk through the hills, visit the famous Storr and its Old Man rock formation, and pay a visit to one of the island’s famous distilleries. Bear in mind that you’ll need to drive a lot during your visit, but the views on either side of the road are worth the trip.
Bath
There’s nowhere in the country quite like the city of Bath, where just about every building is constructed in a Georgian style using local Bath Stone. It’s built around the famous Roman baths built on hot springs, which remain a popular tourist spot.
