Welcome Debbie. Good luck with your trip - you will love either Wales or Cornwall - although different they both have open countryside and lovely scenery. I love Pembrokeshire - we go there every year (that is South West Wales) and the very bottom on Cornwall around Marazion is lovely and unspoilt.

Thank yall so much for all the information it has really helped and i still can use any other thoughts you might have. Out of all the sites i have gone to this one by far is the most helpful and full of information and such nice ppl.

Hi Barabra I am from Montgomery Alabama just down from Birminham, Al. I have lived here all my( 43 yrs)   life but love to travel my husband and i have gone to Ireland twice(which i loved!!!) and Scotland twice so this is our 25th anniversary so we decided on England. Cant wait! all the pictures here look beautiful which i am sure still does not do it justice I love open countryside and landscapes and all the history that is over there.

Keep all the information coming i can use it.

hi again Debbie. if you want to have a pupose to your visit, do you like reading?. If so read any of the Bronte books, such as Wuthering Hieghts, set in Victorian Yorkshire, then book a few nights stay in the village of Howarth. You can stay in the actual Inn that the Bronte's freqented (Look at Pictures of Howarth , Yorkshire, on this site. You can even book your stay there on this site. Whilst there visit their home (open to the public ) and see the clothes they wore, funiture they sat on etc only 5 mins walk from the Inn. lots of lovely little gift shops and romantic walks. A 'must do' once in your lifetime.

Hi Debbie, welcome, You may find it less expensive to fly into Manchester and hire a car. 1 hours drive north will put you in the fanastic Lake District of counties Cumbria, north Lancashire and North Yorkshire, all beautiful areas within 1 hours drive on exellent roads. bet you wont want to go home!!! See some of the pics on this site of these counties.


Thanks Michael,

 I did check on the flight and it was a little better but i can fly to Heathrow on Club World with BA which i have never been able to do with my points so it worked out better to go strat to Heathrow From Atl And my husband does want to at least stay in London for 2 days i guess to see the touristy things lol But i will remember Next time to check out Manchester airport,,lol because i am sure there will be a next time,,lol
