Uk holiday ideas

[NikB]

Have a look at Watergate Bay in Cornwall, lovely spot with some very nice self catering apartments very close to the beach. We went last september and we all had a great time.

Go on holiday in the UK every year so here are my thoughts.

East coast - not a fan, windy, sea not very nice but some nice beaches. Can be a bit Chavvy!

N Wales - Spent most of my childhood hols on the Llyn Peninsula, Nefyn, Abersoch, Aberdaron... Great beaches, clear sea, loads of accommodation options. Abersoch is popular with the Cheshire set so can be expensive.

Mid Wales - My family go to Aberdovey/Towyn every year. We had 40 last year! Good beaches, lots to do and see and loads od self catering places. We've stayed here a few times http://www.hendyfarmholidays.co.uk/ it even has its own railway station for the Tallylyn railway.

Gower - Bit of a trek but lovely beaches (Three cliffs and Oxwich) and scenery. Loads of accommodation and only a short drive into Swansea and the Mumbles.

Norfolk - Went to Cromer a few years ago and it rained constantly, left after 4 days! Well next the Sea has a stunning beach, Cromer a bit run down.

Went to Guernsey last year which was fantastic. Stayed in a tent on a great campsite. It was all set up when we arrived. There are also plenty of self catering places to rent as well.

Isn't Norfolk on the East Coast?

And for what it's worth I would go for Northumberland Coast/Borders. Lots to see and do lovely beaches and great driving roads.

South Wales - The Gower Peninsula is beautiful.

Cornwall - SE coast fab places to visit and the majority don't suffer from the Stein hoards of the north coast.

Not that i'm bias though (as i do live there...)

Rutland Lake...East of Leicester.... beautiful.

Or Bournemouth/Ringwood = New Forest + Beaches
Best of both worlds...

Cornwall and Pembrokeshire are two places we go on a regular basis to and Devon is nice.

Isle of Man.

Stunning.

[pedant]IoM isn't in the UK[/pedant]

I beg to differ. The rest of my family live in Douglas and it really is the ase end of nowhere. It's a drab dreary place stuck in the 1950s.
