    In my home county (Norfolk), I'd have to say my favourite place is Great Yarmouth, purely because it is amusements galore, and the true tourist i am, i have to go in every gift shop  :D but there are more rustic seaside towns nearer to me which i love.

    Further afield, i would have to say Skegness because it really is a lovely place and fun to be there. Scotland on the other hand, i'll never forget it's enchanting scenery, each lake was beautiful and unique, along with driving through the mountains. It was absolutely lovely and memorable! :)

    @Ami2301 I’ve been to Great Yarmouth several times. It’s very nice there I agree. :)

    I hope to go to Scotland soon to experience what you mention!! :smiley:

    If you've never been, Durham is well worth a visit! 

    'A perfect little city', as the author Bill Bryson describes it :)

    And if you travel there by train, the view across the city as you enter the station is just stunning - particularly when the castle and the cathedral are lit up at night-time.

    My favourite place in the UK is Borth in Wales. I have been there several times on holiday and would love to live there one day. It isn't very far from where live now but I would just love to be able to walk on the beach everyday. Even though it is freezing in the winter!

    Durham cathedral is my favourite, the setting is just perfect high up over the river.
