Your favourite UK holiday spot and why?

Cotswolds?
Central, easy to get to, quiet, plenty to see and do.
We stay there a lot.

 

Friends of ours have a holiday cottage in East Williamson near Tenby, S Wales. Lovely part of the world if you like beaches, castles, kids' activities and half-decent food - spent a week there each of the last two summers. Was there for the Olympics' Super Saturday, so the front room will be lodged in my memory for ever (as will the steep hill in Tenby where my van died while running on two cylinders last year). Shame that it's a six-hour van drive from Essex.

As mentioned elsewhere we're off to the IOW in August. I've done one school trip, one holiday with my parents and eight festivals there. But not yet done a holiday as an adult. Looking forward to it way mucho. My wife has been warned that at some point I WILL get everyone standing in an empty field near Newport and bore them incessantly about where the stages and bars were and look! Here's EXACTLY where I parked the van in 2011! You can still see the oil patch!

 

Isle of Purbeck In Dorset, Stunning walks along the coast, great sandy beaches, smashing pubs and a lovely unspoilt area, great camper van tootling place, very laid back place where time stands still.

 

Know of any reasonably priced places to stay that way? Crewcab and tent styley

 

Hmmmm, I can think of one really good one.

 

Hmm, Cotswolds is on the top of the cards at the moment, now when was that wedding

We were thinking about the end of the month, and then remembered you mentioning in your wedding thread about the camper and bus show hmmm

 

Not many places left, 15 buses only

 

Camp site near Saxmunden called Lonely Farm good base for those two beautiful places, I love Brancaster on the Norfolk coast, campsite nearby at Deepdale eco site no hook ups no chemical toilet disposal but good site.

 

Whitby....off season when the weirdos start to appear

 

Lake district for me and avoid the first touristy lake...

I also like Scotland ,wild and untouched....
