Top Spots in UK – An Interactive Map

Top Spots in UK – An Interactive Map

Quintessential England with afternoon teas on the lawn, chocolate-box villages with thatched roofs and duck ponds and swans. Just some of the images that come to mind when I think of our home country. And whilst for the moment we choose to roam around Europe and explore foreign lands,  there’s no doubting England has some gems.

A friend is coming to England this summer from New Zealand and so I have put together the highlights that we have come to know and love about this stalwart island and compiled it all into an interactive map. As a guide, it is of course not complete. It never could be as this is a personal journal of our highlights over the last fifty years as Britains. Although it is a start….

So we invite you in to explore:

  • The southern shores of Sussex, Hampshire and Dorset
  • The delights of the south west, Devon, Cornwall and Somerset
  • The quintessential heart of England in the Cotswolds
  • Bath and Avon
  • Wales and her borders
  • Up north including the Lake District, Northumberland, Derbyshire and York
  • Isle of Man – we couldn’t pass this opportunity up after living there 18 years.
