Matlock bath. Some awesome roads all around, and quality fish and chips when you get there.
The problem with Matlock Bath is everybody has the same idea when the weather is nice so the last 2 miles into the place can take you an hour in traffic. Loads of dhead bikers everywhere too. Lovely place once you're there though.Galsia said:

It is better on a weekday I'd say that, all the positives without the negatives.The Anchor pub in Cambridge on a nice summers day. With the river full of couples on romantic punting dates.
A couple of times a day some poor bd just out to impress his date, grinning from ear to ear knowing he is definitely getting some later thanks to his manly display of turning down a pro to steer the boat for them, approaching the bridge in the picture and completely failing to spot the impending doom of a low bridge and with it, any chance of seeing the woman again.
As the stick they are holding behind them wedges between the bed of the river and the arch of bridge, combined with a naive effort to keep hold of the stick results in the slow motion fall into the river in front of and to the joy of a 100 or so patrons of the pub.

Dorset - Jurassic Coast. Lulworth Cove and Durdle Door are 2 favourites.
Peak District National Park
Inverness - the drive to Skye is magical, and the drive down Loch Ness to Fort William isn't bad either.
Edinburgh - as cities go, its one I always enjoy.
This, but use the B862/B852 along the Southern bank. Quieter and more interesting.Peak District National Park

North through Glen Coe is simply awesome.
In England, I'd suggest Jodrell Bank for something different.
+1 for Bath

In no particular order.....
Whitby / RHB - one of the most beautiful places in our land.
London - staying in The Gore Hotel - go to the right places and it's a great city.
Kirby Lonsdale - Cumbrian countryside and walks.
Shorpe - then when you go anywhere else, you'll feel lucky.
Ambleside - Lakes scenery.
Ladybower Reservoir - don't know why, it's just a really nice place for a picnic.
York - old stuff and the Railway museum.
Places to avoid - Wales. Scotland.
