What kind of destinations do you dream about exploring when the weather is miserable and cold? Your thoughts are almost certain to wander to locations that offer golden sands, swaying palm trees and coral blue sea. You might be surprised, however, to learn there are plenty of exotic places in the UK! Visiting the UK isles at any point in the year is bound to provide you with an exciting, unique getaway, with weather that only the UK is famous for. Rather than opting to venture to some of the big, bustling cities, why not choose the lesser-known wonders of the UK, such as the five below.
The Tropical Scilly Isles
The UK is not known for its tropical weather, but there are some spots where you can enjoy some delightful weather. The Scilly Isles,located 30 miles off the coast of Cornwall, is one such place. The warm gulf stream air influences its climate,so you find exotic plants and flowers as well as palm trees.
English Wine Tour
When you think of a beautiful wine producing country, the UK is not the first one to spring to mind. However, the UK is home to some outstanding wine producers. Denbies Vineyard, in the south of England, is one example, but there are many more dotted around the country if you fancy organizing a tour.
Roman Baths in Bath
The Roman city of Bath is heavily protected, which means it has retained much of its character and charm. Visit Sally Lunn’s Bun Shop and experience a quintessential English tea, go back in time and explore the city’s Roman Baths,or take in the splendor of the Royal Crescent.
Three Cliffs Bay, Swansea
Swansea is a beautiful city to visit and will keep you entertained day and night, but if you prefer somewhere a little quieter, just half an hour’s drive away is Three Cliffs Bay. Take in the spectacular shoreline of sand dunes, limestone cliffs, and salt marshes. Why not take a companion with you from Swanseaescorts.wales because the scenery on offer is too much for one person! Take along a picnic,try glamping or stay in one of the many cottage retreats.
Carrick-a-Rede Rope Bridge
The Giant’s Causeway is a place that features in many people’s bucket list of places to visit and quite rightly so! The basalt columns that were created many years ago are a spectacular sight. Just around the corner, however, is an equally spectacular place to visit,although it wasn’t built such a long time ago. This precarious rope bridge was constructed by salmon fisherman 350 years ago and is still standing today. It hangs 30 meters above the water and offers some fantastic views.
These are just five of the unusual but nonetheless exotic locations to visit around the UK. There are so many different spots worthy of a visit that it would take more than a few hundred words to list them all. This is just a taster to spark your enthusiasm!
