After visiting a selection of London’s approximately 30,000 shops, 6,000 restaurants, 7,000 pubs and encyclopaedic list of heritage attractions, you may be ready for adventures further afield.
Beyond Heathrow Terminal 2,3,4
Drive for just over an hour to reach the picture-postcard villages of the Cotswolds and stop off on the way in the ancient university city of Oxford. Or set off due south to explore the wild moors and surfer-friendly bays of the south west. En route, take in Bath, a spa destination since Roman times, or cross into Wales for the second-hand bookshop capital of the world, Hay-on-Wye, or Swansea’s sublime, sandy neighbour Rhossili.
Head north from Heathrow for the Dales and Moors and small town charm of Yorkshire, or Wordsworth country nestled in the lush Lake District. Further north, uncover the stunning Northumberland coast and cross the border into Scotland for a highland road trip.
