Summer Holidays in England: find your perfect rental from just £25 per night!
What are the perfect ingredients for a summer break? Great views, plenty of activities, quality accommodation and wonderful food and drink. You'll find these things in spades with these suggestions.
Picture-perfect villages, green landscapes, bustling market towns, and historic monuments abound in this rural heaven which spans 100 miles. Whether you fancy glamping or a high-end B&B, you'll be spoilt for choice when seeking relaxation opportunities. Enjoy long walks (followed by a cream tea), visit ancient castles and beautiful stately homes, tour landscaped public gardens, and pick up some gifts at some of the UK's oldest chartered markets.
This is a county which offers a diverse range of activity for your holidays. Why not enjoy a classic seaside break at Bournemouth beach, or stay in an eco-cabin in The New Forest? Take a day trip to the Historic Dockyards at Portsmouth and explore the stunning Meon Valley, which really does look like a picture postcard.
If you love spotting wildlife, the Lincolnshire coastline is the ideal spot - it has even won awards for its quality and natural landscapes. Visit Gibraltar Point Nature Reserve, let the kids go wild on the rides at Fantasy Island, enjoy the summer Viking Festival, and discover mile upon mile of 'secret' beaches, sand dunes, and wild walks.
Pack your outdoor wear and prepare to enjoy plenty of sports, nature, and great food in this holiday haven. There is plenty of great accommodation, from spa hotels to converted barns, and the local gastropubs are particularly good. Visit Beatrix Potter's House, take a cruise on Lake Windermere, cycle and walk across miles of stunning countryside, and enjoy climbing, paddle-boarding, and other guided pursuits to learn something new.
Perhaps you're looking for a cultural and cuisine-focused holiday for two, rather than a family adventure? In which case, seek out this charming town for extremely fine food. Windsor is home to more triple Michelin starred restaurants than any other part of the UK, and its gastronomy scene is legendary. See Windsor Castle, take a jaunt to Ascot Races, perhaps enjoy a punt along the Thames, and admire the beautiful architecture of this historic town. The shopping scene is particularly good, and the Savill Garden is well worth a visit too, before you settle in for the evening with a bottle of fizz and a menu...
