What’s the best place you have ever been to in the UK?

For me I think it has to be the Yorkshire Dales. A big area I know but hard to narrow it down from there as it’s all so nice.

    Worked a lot in Liverpool back in the day, and always liked the place and the people.

    I know it's not the UK but I loved the Isle of Man! It's so old-fashioned and everyone is so nice.

    There's so many beautiful places.  I'm particularly fond of the Ceredigion Coast - the scenery, culture and those Welsh accents! While the old cities like York, Lincoln and Chester have a real atmosphere about them and I always enjoy pottering about the winding streets and taking in the architecture.  We really are lucky to live here :)

    The I.O.M is a self governing British crown dependancy.

    I was never any good at geography but that makes perfect sense, woodbine, as I believe that national speed limit on single carriageway roads in the IOM is “unlimited” whereas in the U.K. it’s 60mph!

    I had a lovely week I’m Derbyshire near dove dale and Buxton all around there was very pretty. I have also enjoyed walking around York and Durham has my favourite cathedral. ?

    I have always loved the Wye Valley, but fairly recently fell in love with the Norfolk Broads. Hoping my holiday this year doesn't get cancelled again like last year.

    As an individual I stood alone.
    As a member of a group I did things.
    As part of a community I helped to create change!
