View Holidays

Discover Idyllic English Villages & Historic Gems

This delightful area of England spans history with ancient abbeys, Iron Age forts and elegant Georgian architecture. Winding lanes link quaint villages, in which dainty thatched cottages seem lifted straight from a novel. The city of Bath is a highlight, with wide Georgian crescents leading to Roman baths, a taste of luxury through the ages.
