England

England is the biggest country in the United Kingdom, welcoming travellers from all over the world on an journey equally defined by historic grandeur and rural beauty. 

Begin your journey in London, the dynamic capital of England. This is a city with an unrelenting buzz, where each quarter brings its own defining qualities, joined by the iconic London underground railway. Its political landmarks, like the Tower of London, Buckingham Palace, and the Houses of Parliament, coexist with cutting-edge art galleries, vibrant markets, and a thriving theatre scene in the West End. You will find some of the best hotels in England here in London, where luxury and comfort meets the regal elegance of its best high streets.

Venture north to York, a city steeped in medieval history, where a stroll along its ancient city walls feels like a portal through time. You can even see the guiding lines for horse-drawn carriages along the narrow, cobbled streets of the Shambles. You can also explore the history of Viking invasions at the Jorvik Viking Centre.

Heading further north, the dramatic landscapes of the Lake District beckon. This English national park, renowned for its stunning lakes and rolling hills, inspired the works of William Wordsworth. Hiking, boating, and quaint villages like Grasmere make the Lake District the perfect location for a family walking holiday.

For a taste of England’s coastal beauty, visit the Jurassic Coast, a UNESCO World Heritage site known for its dramatic cliffs and fossil-rich beaches. The charming seaside towns of Dorset and Devon offer a glimpse into traditional coastal life, complete with fresh seafood and breathtaking views. 

Wherever you choose to visit in England, the country is sure to have something for you. Whilst literature lovers may head to the charming, riverside town of Stratford-upon-Avon, the beloved birthplace of William Shakespeare, countryside dwellers may prefer the open countryside of the Cotswolds.
