Me and my house mate were just talking about travelling and stuff and have agreed we definately need to see more, we've got loads of places to go abroad, and i was just wondering where people would recommend in the UK?

But it depends really what you're planning on doing in these places and what you're after.
The Lake District is a beautiful place, but not if you want to go clubbing and the likes!
London for a weekend
Plymouth. Cardiff. Bristol - for a good night out
Seconded. Some of my best memories are time I spent there, and in Northern Ireland. Vastly underrated.
I'd also recommend Newcastle, if you've never been. Northumberland is gorgeous and perfect for a little break, especially if you drive.
It depends what you're looking for - relaxation, nightlife, sightseeing...a mix of all those things are more?
Cardiffs great too.. but you're in wales already...
Um.. Cornwall and Devon - Beautiful places with plenty to do. Manchester.
We're planning on doing this sometime this year/next year too. Haven't seen enough of the UK..
I suppose being from Rotton anywhere esle seems intresting.
Salisbury's not too bad. You've got the Stones, a severely impressive Cathederal, Old Sarum, quite pretty - good if you like your history.
Southampton's not bad for shopping, Romsey aint much better than Totton - a dive. Winchester's dull and there are are better places to go in Dorset than Wimborne.
New Forest is good - though I'm biased.
Harrogate was the one that worried me..
A matter of taste
I quite like market towns like Wimborne and Romsey.
Totton is just a hole. It has no redeeming features at all...i prefer inner city Bradford.
Winchester is my favourite city in Hampshire.
Southampton is nice for a wander around the old bits, but is really just a characterless shopping centre (couldn't miss it off my list, though!).
We're looking into the places to go now for the summer, i think cornwall will be on the list as well as the causeway, and maybe edinburgh?
We did a quick tour thing for our honeymoon and saw some of the UK. My favourite was the Lakes.
Want to see more though.
This is where I live, the only good thing (imo) is Home Park which is Plymouth Argyle's football ground. Town can be nice as well, apart from on a Saturday morning when it's really busy...
Union street and Temptations.
We fucked up the Pavillions flume when I was there last. Cost my mate 32k.
:yes: I've lived just outside of the Lakes most of my life, and I still think it's one of the most beautiful places I've seen. But if you do visit, try and avoid school holidays cos all the towns get ridiculously busy.
