There are many different kinds of summer holidays out there to suit all tastes and budgets. Something that has become increasingly popular in recent years is the active, outdoorsy, domestic trip. Here are a few favourites to consider:
1.For some of the most spectacular scenery in Britain, head straight to the Lake District. Go with friends, hire a cottage, explore the many delightful walking and hiking opportunities available and recover in a homely public house with some great British food and a pint.
2. To really get back to basics, why not take your kids on a camping trip? Cornwall has long been a favoured destination for campers due to its pleasant weather and charming coastline.
3. Not sure about living in a tent for a week? The next step up is a caravan. See caravan holidays Wales on the Park Resorts website, for example. Park Resorts sites are friendly and well run establishments that will help you to make the most of your caravanning stay.
4. If you really want to get involved with British heritage the National Trust run a host of schemes across the country that allow you to take a hands on role in helping to conserve some of Britain’s best loved crumbling ruins. A great way to meet like-minded holiday makers for those travelling solo.
5. For those who prefer a physical challenge, check out the Three Peaks Hike running across the UK. You will climb 3 of Britain’s most challenging mountains, including Snowdonia, in just a few weeks - a fabulous way to get to grips with some of the more dramatic geography of our small island whilst also getting in shape.
6. And, last but not least, for those who wish to experience true relaxation, true peace and quiet, there are always the Scottish Highlands. There is no shortage of holiday properties up for rent in this stunning corner of Britain. Take your partner or a friend and indulge in the opportunity to get away from it all.
