Top 10: best places and cities to visit in England - Telegraph

Visitors ock to Yorkshire because there is no place on earth like Gods Own
County. It considers its food and drink reputation as now the best in Britain.
Yorkshire boasts more Michelin-starred restaurants than anywhere else in the
country (apart from the clogged streets of London and who wants to go there?).
The sheer beauty of the county, sometimes as unexpected as a dilapidated mill
chimney stabbing up through a leaden sky, has inspired generations of painters:
from John Atkinson Grimshaws moonscapes to the Victorian artists of the
Staithes Group to David Hockneys Yorkshire Wolds.
The only downside for visitors is the secret is out. Some 40 million visitors now
travel here every year for heritage-related tourism alone. Good job its grand old
cities and sweeping moors and Dales are large enough to soak them all up.

Swinton Park, Yorkshire


Swinton Park stands in 200 acres of lake lled grounds. Beyond that lies its
20,000-acre estate, embracing farmland and moorland. There is also a charming
nine-hole golf course. First built in the late 17th century, Swinton Park has been
much altered over the years; especially when wealthy mill owner Samuel
Cunliffe-Lister bought the estate in 1888, much enlarging it and creating its
present Victorian feel. Swinton Park is very family-friendly offering a charming
trail and quiz through the grounds for kids, plus a Games Room, and Bird of Prey
Centre.

Middlethorpe Hall & Spa, Yorkshire
Middlethorpe Hall & Spa is set in 20-acres of beautiful grounds, where early
risers might glimpse roe deer in the mist-shrouded gardens. The style is smart
but not pretentious; sophisticated but not showy. Yes, there are creaky oors
and wonky door frames - and the spa is tiny, but it is a 300 year-old country
house. Dinner is served by candlelight in the wood-panelled dining room, which
dates from 1699, and dishes include locally sourced produce and vegetables
straight from the garden outside.

COTSWOLDS
The glorious, honey-coloured towns and villages of the Cotswolds look as if they
have strayed into the 21st century from another era. The area is characterised by
gentle dynamism, with lively galleries, vibrant festivals and a liberal endowment
of intriguing museums. Covering nearly 800 square miles across ve counties
(Wiltshire, Gloucestershire, Oxfordshire, Warwickshire and Worcestershire),
this region of wolds, or rolling hills, is the biggest of the 38 Areas of
Outstanding Natural Beauty (AONB) in England and Wales.
Every season has intrinsic appeal. Crowd-free winters are ideal for bracing
walks, re-side pub sessions and lower hotel prices.Come in spring to see
lambs and wild daffodils. Visit in summer (inevitably with many others) for
magical light, particularly in the long evenings. Or make an autumn excursion
for a quieter atmosphere and wonderful leaf colour, especially at the two great
arboreta, Westonbirt and Batsford.

This gracious, 17th-century manor house is tucked into the heart of handsome

But for all that, the building is magnicently upstaged by its garden. There are
four acres of formal gardens including a knot garden and a potager. In the

Inside, its a traditional Devonshire pub with a homely, hearthside feel. You can

LAKE DISTRICT
Visit the Lake District for Britains nest scenery, greenest countryside and
grandest views. Its picturesque patchwork of lakes, valleys, woodlands and fells
make it one of the best places in Britain to get out and experience the great
outdoors, whether its on a leisurely bike ride down country lanes or a day-long
hike across the hills.
The Lake District also has numerous artistic and literary connections, most
famously William Wordsworth, who was born in Cockermouth in 1770 and drew
much of his poetic inspiration from the surrounding landscape. And while the
weather is notoriously unpredictable (locals will tell you that its not unusual to
experience all four seasons in a single day), showers and racing clouds only
emphasise the grandeur of the magnicent scenery.

With its distinctive gabled entrance and handsome bay windows, the inn has
served as a way-marker for travellers since around 1700, and its still a local
landmark. Most rooms are in an annexe attached to the main pub, and have been
renovated during the pubs modernisation. The main advantage here is the
family-friendliness: there are several twins and rooms with bunk-beds for the
kids, and youre even allowed to bring in the (well-behaved) dog if you want to.

Brimstone at Langdale, Lake District
Langdale is one of the Lake Districts most picturesque valleys: small, but
dramatic, quiet yet with plenty of life. Standing boldly among the conifers and
pines, Brimstone is intentionally reminiscent of a large ski chalet, constructed
using beautiful blue-grey Lakeland stone. From the glowing, glass-fronted stove
(lit to be toasty just as you arrive and replete with log stack) to the double
shower, enormous spa bath and bi-fold doors opening out to Lakeland views
its impossible to nd fault with bedrooms as well designed and delightfully
indulgent as these.

NORFOLK
Norfolk's undulating countryside and sleepy, int-built villages are perfect for
gentle cycling, walking or touring by car. Stately homes, ruined castles,
medieval churches and half-timbered wool-towns with fascinating museums
make enjoyable days out. Although East Anglia gets less rain than many other
holiday destinations in the UK, northerly and easterly winds over the North Sea
can keep temperatures low. But even on cold, bright days in winter, the beach
car parks can be busy with dog-walkers and hikers.
Theres also a good variety of shopping in lively Georgian towns such as
Burnham Market and Holt in North Norfolk.

generations of families as well as couples returning time and time again. It has a
solid, dependable air, although its new look may well begin to attract a younger
clientele as it takes hold. All but a handful of the rooms have been redecorated,
and they are as calm and peaceful and softly coloured as the marshes opposite.

landscape of dense pine forest, open heathland and great expanses of salt marsh.
Bird life is astonishingly rich and coastal wild owers include yellow-horned
poppies and purple-owering sea pea, while the unique wetlands of the Broads,
one of Englands 10 designated National Parks, is home to more than 400 rare
species, including butteries, dragonies, moths and snails.
Wherever you are, youre never far from a cosy, pamment-oored pub serving
local ales or an excellent delicatessen selling the regions specialities pungent
cheeses, smoked sh or honey.

CORNWALL
Cornwall is dened by its magnicent coastline with 300 miles of dunes and
cliffs, medieval harbours and oak-forested creeks and every mile accessible on
foot. Such an unspoilt coastline inspires Enid Blyton-style adventures: take a
picnic and the dog through elds fringed in wildowers to a remote beach;
clamber down stepping-stone cliffs to rock pools that are works of marine art;
swim with seals and harmless basking sharks. Surng is big draw, for all ages
bodyboarding too and lessons are available on most north-coast beaches.
Cornwall is also known for its artistic heritage. Painters, sculptors and potters of
international renown come for the big skies, the rugged beauty of the boulderstrewn moorland, and the intense light that turns the sea cerulean blue even in
mid-winter.

BATH
With sweeping, honey-stone Georgian crescents and terraces spread over a
green and hilly bowl, Bath is a strong contender for Englands most beautiful
small city. It has a fascinating and easily accessible history, from the Roman
Baths to the life and times of one-time resident Jane Austen. Interesting,
digestible galleries and museums including the recently revamped Holburne
and One Royal Crescent are many and varied, while shopping is also a major
draw. Baths Achilles heel used to be used to be a surprising dearth of good,
affordable places to eat. But that is no longer the case. The foodie transformation
of a number of the citys pubs over the past decade has been the most signicant
improvement.
