Bath, United Kingdom
Bath provides the perfect English getaway. This is a genteel city soaked in history, which has kept its stiff upper lip but learned how to relax with a cocktail, too.
Belfast, United Kingdom
Belfast is back. The Northern Irish capital has had a makeover, put the tough times behind her and is stepping out in style from behind Dublin's shadow.
Berkshire, United Kingdom
For fine eateries, picturesque countryside and fascinating heritage, the Royal County of Berkshire is hard to beat.
Birmingham, United Kingdom
The metropolis of the Midlands, Birmingham’s a-buzz with shoppers, music fans and lovers of art and architecture who appreciate the urban aura of the city.
Brecon Beacons, United Kingdom
In these peaceful and unspoilt uplands, blessed with spellbinding natural beauty and watermarked with Celtic legends, the mind, the body and the spirit can all be revived and renewed.
Brighton, United Kingdom
Forget kiss-me-quick hats and candyfloss on Palace Pier – with its pretty, terraced squares, Brighton gives Bath a run for its Regency money.
Buckinghamshire, United Kingdom
With woodlands fit for a fairytale and country hideaways down almost every lane, Buckinghamshire’s an accessible escape from city life.
Cambridge, United Kingdom
A world-renowned academic powerhouse, an architectural history lesson in the shape of a scenic riverside city, and just an hour from London, Cambridge is the textbook weekend escape.
Cardigan Bay, United Kingdom
Cardigan Bay, like the knitwear of the same name, is a comfy-cosy, sit-back-and-put-your-feet-up kind of place. But that’s not to say the area lacks drama.
Cornwall, United Kingdom
With its soft sand beaches, hot summer sun and spectacularly noisy waves, Cornwall is the stuff of perfect childhood holidays.
Cotswolds, United Kingdom
More typically English than a bowler-hatted Bertie Wooster whistling Elgar, this chunk of gently undulating and seemingly evergreen countryside is enough to send Anglophile tourists into apoplexy.
Devon, United Kingdom
Devon is the stuff of childhood dreams. Sun-kissed beaches and quiet little coves hark back to a time when all you needed for a day of unbridled pleasure was a bucket and spade, acres of sand and the promise of an ice-cream before bed.
Dorset, United Kingdom
Dorset is a tale of two landscapes: the chalky downlands of Cranborne Chase and the Purbeck Hills, with their pretty villages and grand houses; and the wild, adventure-friendly Jurassic Coast, rebranded but untamed.
East Sussex, United Kingdom
The East Sussex coast has always attracted crowds; in the height of summer, you may have to fight your way onto the beaches, just as the Romans and Normans once did.
Edinburgh, United Kingdom
If Scotland’s first city had a front door, it would come with a huge ‘Welcome’ mat.
Glasgow, United Kingdom
If character and personality won prizes, Glasgow would be rightfully awarded the attention normally showered on the more obviously beautiful Edinburgh.
Gloucestershire, United Kingdom
Gloucestershire, with its picture-postcard English towns and countryside, is perfect for a romantic weekend.
Hampshire, United Kingdom
A hop from London, Hampshire has long been the go-to county for urbanite weekenders in need of a rural retreat.
Harrogate, United Kingdom
There's more to Harrogate than Bettys tea rooms and Farrah's toffee; as well as being a green-fingered garden of earthly delights and heritage spa destination, it's the gateway to the beautiful Yorkshire Dales.
Kent, United Kingdom
Ever since Caesar first came, saw and conquered it, the Garden of England has attracted visitors with its sandy beaches and fertile countryside.
Lake District, United Kingdom
Cumbria’s dramatic, brooding landscape has inspired creative souls for centuries: poet William Wordsworth penned many of his most famous works in the Lake District, and it’s where Beatrix Potter settled with her beloved flock of Herdwick sheep.
Liverpool, United Kingdom
This stately old lady on the banks of the Mersey may have celebrated her 800th birthday, but she’s enjoying an invigorating shake-up these days…
London, United Kingdom
England's capital has got it all. And she flaunts it.
Manchester, United Kingdom
Mancunians may be too down-to-earth to say it themselves, but the capital of the northwest has come over all Manhattanchester.
Norfolk, United Kingdom
The famous Broads, the wild and wonder-filled beaches, the huge skies: Norfolk is a remote and inspiring corner of England, just a couple of hours from London.
North Yorkshire, United Kingdom
Where wild moors and rolling dales form the backdrop to solid, greystone market towns and idyllic country villages, North Yorkshire is the UK's ultimate antidote to urban life.
Oxfordshire, United Kingdom
Tradition and new ideas combine in Oxfordshire to create the best of all worlds.
Peak District, United Kingdom
The sheer size and scale of the Peak District makes for much of its mystery. Stretched across northern Derbyshire and rolling into a handful of other counties, it comprises 555 square miles of moors and uplands, dramatic views and drystone walls, plus pubs and tearooms aplenty.
Shropshire, United Kingdom
Fabulous food, history-rich regions, and an array of outdoor pursuits: Shropshire is something of a crowd-pleaser.
Somerset, United Kingdom
A delicious combination of chocolate-box villages, undulating hills and elegant cities (Bath and Wells), Somerset is the sort of place where honey-laden bees buzz lazily through orchards, perhaps pausing on a fallen apple.
Stratford-upon-Avon, United Kingdom
This attractive and historic riverside market town is once again claiming centre stage, tempting tourists back to its compact, cobbled streets from the neighbouring Cotswolds.
Suffolk, United Kingdom
Flat as a pint of Adnams left in the sun, evocative East Anglia has more in common, topographically at least, with just-across-the-North-Sea Netherlands than the hilly counties to the west.
Vale of Glamorgan, United Kingdom
In Wales, they say a little bit of everything never did anyone any harm – and diversity is what you’ll get in spades in the Vale of Glamorgan.
Wales, United Kingdom
The sleepy green counterpoint to southern England’s metropolitan madness.
West Sussex, United Kingdom
With the cathedral city of Chichester providing its meanest seaside streets, West Sussex is a green and pleasant county, where seasons and hills roll gently, all against the ever-shifting backdrop of the sea.
Wester Ross, United Kingdom
The Scottish Highlands: unlike anywhere else on earth.
Wiltshire, United Kingdom
Nothing falls flat in this gorgeous setting of sweeping hills and verdant vales, where folklore, myth and mystery lurk around every curve of the road.
Worcestershire, United Kingdom
Sitting comfortably between the Cotswolds, Warwickshire and the Welsh Marches, Worcestershire is a preserved pocket of tumbling hills, riverside towns and a grand old cathedral city.
