Last minute Weekends away UK

With 100, 000 square miles making up England, Scotland and Wales, deciding where to go can be the most difficult part of arranging a weekend break – that, and knowing what the weather’s going to do (but don’t worry, we’ve got that covered too).

The Lake District’s vast meres and stone circles come in a close second, with Devon and its delicious clotted cream teas not far behind.

Venture further north, and you can wonder o’er the Dales and through the pretty market towns of Yorkshire, or head to the North West, and climb your way over the rolling hills of Derbyshire and the Peak District.

Maybe the Cotswolds’ typically English thatched cottages and penchant for polo might tempt you, or there’s Sussex, where traditional seaside piers branch out from one of the sunniest parts of the UK.

So whether you want to eat scones by the seaside, get a cathedral and culture fix, or scour the countryside for ancient ruins, start here.
