Default Suggest a good UK holiday destination?
I'd like to take my son away for a few days in next school hols, want to stay in the UK, somewhere that's likely to have some sunshine, nice scenic walks, things to do and see. Not expensive. Not asking for much am I?

Any recommendations?

Cornwall/Devon is always banded about yet I've never been. Sounds good though if the weather is nice I would look into that

Cornwall and Devon are amazing. Warmest parts of the country, lots of great scenery, countryside, beaches and the moors. Wins hands down. Totnes is a good place to visit in Devon.

I have to agree. Devon especially is quite beautiful. My oldest Son went to Somerset for a school trip and loved it there.

Has to be the cotswolds because it's absolutely beautiful. Although, I am a bit biased.

Yes, I would suggest Devon or Cornwall too. When you get there at the right time of year it's great. One hell of a drive though if you go by car.

If you want the weather, you really need to go down south. Avoid Southend and The Isle of Sheppey at all costs. Torquay looks nice. (Not Torbay). If you want scenic walks then the Lake District is good. Also many parts of Wales. Anglesey is really nice and quiet. It depends where you are situated and how far you want to travel.

I wouldn't suggest Torquay, no offence Shaun.

There are much nice places in Devon.

West Wales is fab, especially a place called Barmouth (lots of holiday camps around there) right on the coast and in the Summer is usually scorching. Frequent holiday destination of mine growing up, lovely little town.
