Top Sights across the UK
Cornwall
Come for the beaches, stay for the charm, history and awe-inspiring coastal scenery. Cornwall is a treasure trove of holiday delights, from the dazzling, golden sands of Perranporth to surfer's paradise Newquay and the exotic Eden Project. It's the ultimate seaside getaway.
Devon
Fringed with secret coves, wave-swept bays and quaint seaside towns, Devon's 2 coastlines will please every type of sunseeker, from the bucket and spade crew to watersports pros. Remarkably, the countryside here is equally special, with 2 national parks and 5 AONBs. It's time to get active!
Dorset
The ancient mingles with the new in Dorset. Go back in time wandering the Jurassic Coast's fossil-rich shores, live it up in glitzy Sandbanks or appreciate the magic of mother nature at Lulworth Cove and Durdle Door. With history, culture, beaches and watersports too, it entertains everyone!
East Anglia & Lincolnshire
A morning in the misty, eerily beautiful Norfolk Broads, a sun-baked afternoon on Great Yarmouth's warm, golden sands, evening in Hunstanton watching the sunset paint the cliffs scarlet red... every minute of your holiday in East Anglia & Lincolnshire is a moment to treasure.
Essex
Welcome to Britain's Sunshine Coast, a holiday haven that's all about the classics: deck chairs, donkeys, bucket and spades, slots and scrumptious fish and chips. But look beyond Essex's golden shores and you'll find surprises, like heavenly Constable Country and Roman capital Colchester.
Hampshire
There's beaches, scenery and a whole lot of history in Hampshire. From the awe-inspiring immensity of Winchester Cathedral to the tightly packed gun decks of HMS Victory, Britain's past comes to life around you. If you live for watersports and traditional seaside fun, head straight for Hayling Island.
Isle of Wight
Queen Victoria loved the Isle of Wight so much, she built a holiday home here. And where better? The countryside is lush, the views sensational and the sandy beaches feel almost Mediterranean. Throw in some vintage seaside towns and flamboyant festivals and you have the ideal holiday island.
Kent & Sussex
The White Cliffs of Dover are one of Britain's most enduring symbols, and in some ways, they represent everything Kent & Sussex have to offer; spectacular natural beauty, nation-shaping historic sites and a glorious coastline that captures the heart.
The Lake District
As the mists unfurl, the Lake District's fierce mountains are revealed. Looming over glassy lakes, wooded hillsides and golden meadows, they're the crowning glory of England's largest national park. Visit this natural paradise for inspirational scenery and unlimited outdoor adventures.
Lancashire
The sight of Morecambe Bay's rippling sands blazing amber and crimson at sunset, the sounds of wildlife bursting through a little-visited forest, the smell of vinegar-drenched fish and chips on Blackpool prom. Lancashire has sights to wow the senses and thrill the soul.
Northumberland & County Durham
History, scenery and a golden coastline of empty beaches. It's an irresistible mix and it's what makes a visit to Northumberland & County Durham so essential. Discover world-class castles like Alnwick and Bamburgh, one-of-a-kind Hadrian's Wall and the Farne Island's cute and curious puffins.
Scotland
Soaring mountains, ancient glens, lochs and storybook castles, Scotland's countryside feels almost other-worldly. And the beaches! Golden, fine and lapped by turquoise seas. It's an unforgettable destination and one that's rich with history, culture and unrivalled outdoor adventures. Go!
Wales
A pint-sized country that punches well above its weight when it comes to history, culture, beaches, golf, scenery - you name it! Here you'll find vast swathes of golden sand, graceful seaside resorts, awe-inspiring national parks and a dizzying array of castles. There's no such thing as a one-off visit.
Yorkshire
Yorkshire ticks all the holiday must-haves. A characterful coastline of sandy beaches, lively resorts teeming with amusements and (our personal favourite) fluffy, vinegary fish and chips fresh from the harbour. Serve with a side of culture and history and you have the ideal recipe for family fun.
