Close to the European continent and boasting fantastic connections, time in the UK can easily be combined with any European vacation, but is equally enjoyable as a stand-alone destination.

The vast openness of the English countryside is something to behold and has inspired countless artists and writers throughout the centuries. Witness the rolling hills that influenced the poetry of William Wordsworth, and gaze upon the greenery that gave John Keats his inspiration.

From the rolling hills of the Yorkshire Dales to Devon and Cornwall’s sweeping coastlines, the English countryside promises to endear itself to even the most thoroughbred city folk.

Equally, the cosmopolitan sprawls of London and Manchester have created reputations for themselves as international economic powerhouses, home to a variety of flourishing industries and inclusive attitudes.

Luxury travelers to the United Kingdom will have a variety of stunning destinations to choose from. In the Cotswolds, stay at elegant manor houses and experience the perfect countryside retreat, complete with scenic walks, and fresh local cuisine.

If the glistening streets of London are more appealing, there’s a wealth of fantastic and centrally arranged accommodations to choose from. Speak to one of our expert team today about planning the perfect vacation to the UK. You can see the old-world charms of Bath and the Cotswolds, hyper-modern London, and Manchester, the vibrant capital of the north.
