ENGLAND - AN INTRODUCTION

A holiday in England can be as relaxing or as active as you wish to make it. Consider touring around, visiting historic cities and stately homes and gardens, staying in quaint bed & breakfasts (B&Bs) and having a drink in the evening with the locals at the village pub.

With so many places to see and one of the world's greatest capitals to explore, it's up to you how packed your day will be. You could hire a car or take the train or coach, or perhaps join an organised tour, where all the planning is done for you.

Discover the lively cities, literary heritage and five spectacular National Parks of England's North Country; explore Central England's delightful villages, inland waterways and industrial heritage; and enjoy the South of England's beautiful gardens, picturesque fishing villages and varied coastline. And, of course, there's always an endless list of things to see and do in London, our exciting capital city.
