(Ages at time of travel)
England, a country of patchwork landscapes: from the rugged coastlines and golden beaches of Devon and Cornwall, to the craggy mountains of the Peak District, the ancient forests riddled with folklore, to the picturesque Lake District, to great cities and to centuries-old villages of heart-warming charm. Woven into its fabric lies a rich-veined Englishness, earthed in a heritage of stone circles, Arthurian legend, Shakespeare, the triumphalist ego of a crumbling aristocracy, and the cocky independence of an island nation.

Vibrant, multicultural and contradictory, contemporary England is a place of extremes yet, at times, fiercely united. From the essential glories of London, Stratford, Gloucester and York, to the quirky delights of Newcastle, Liverpool and Manchester, Englands cities are lively, buzzing places, where a love of nostalgia strains against a spirit of inventiveness.

Enjoy the unrivalled beauty of the Cotswolds and the Dales, but travel the byways of Northumberland, and church-laden Lincolnshire too. With time to spare, escape the tourist trails and wander over peaceful countryside, savour real ale at a country pub, visit a traditional town market, or sample Englands new-wave wines and a cosmopolitan cuisine that rivals any in the world. England today is welcoming, friendly, fascinating and fun, where pomp and circumstance balance the often bizarre idiosyncrasies of its people, and a sense of humour is the passport to certain acceptance.

  • Barbican Centre
    The Barbican Centre, located in the heart of the city of London, is a 35-acre residential estate housing Europe's largest multi-arts and conference venue. The complex includes the Barbican Hall (concerts), a cinema and two theatres - the Barbican Theatre and The Pit.
  • Buckingham Palace
    The official London residence of the monarch since Queen Victoria moved there in 1837, Buckingham Palace is one of the most recognisable monuments of the monarchy in London, perched in the midst of central London's green spaces.
  • Holkham Beach
    Much of North Norfolk has been designated an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty - and with good cause. The beach at Holkham is a very special stretch that scorns deckchairs and is blessed with some of the best that English nature has to offer. The net result is miles and miles of clean golden sands, white sand dunes and big, big skies.
  • London Eye
    The giant wheel of the British Airways London Eye began carrying its first passengers at the beginning of 2000 and has now given 21 million people the best bird's eye view of the capital.
  • The British Museum
    The British Museum is one of London's top attractions, with a mission to "illuminate the histories of cultures for present and future generations". There are world-class collections from civilisations across the globe, with particularly popular galleries devoted to the Assyrians, the Egyptians and the Ancient Greeks.
