Britain Travel Guide

London has so much to offer that you could spend a lifetime of holidays there. To do so would mean missing out on Britain's other equally enticing cities. The rapid growth of flights (and low-cost airlines) to ever-expanding regional airports means that the UK's cities have never been more accessible.

How these cities have changed, with alfresco dining, open-air art and spacious, pedestrianised centres making them attractive for strolling and browsing. There is a wide choice of accommodation available, too, from the growing budget and medium-priced chains such as Travel Inn Metro, Holiday Inn Express and Malmaison, to luxury hotels in grand buildings.
