If you are coming in to the UK on holiday then you may think that you will be able to do a lot. Despite the fact the country is relatively small, compared to many others, you will find that it is still far too big to be able to explore on one trip. If you want to travel outside on London then it is a good idea to organise a hire car as it will make your travel much easier. Despite having a good train network as well as buses, the transport is not that reliable or comfortable.

When thinking about where to visit the first decision is whether you want to see cities, villages or countryside. If you want to see the city then staying in London is the best thing to do, there is plenty to offer with a huge amount of museums, art galleries and other attractions as well as historical buildings, tours, the river, parks and gardens. If you want some countryside then Dartmoor or the lake District could be your taste or if you want to travel even further north then maybe the Lochs in Scotland might be your thing. If you want villages then the Cotswolds are probably the place to go. You will see chocolate box style cottages with country gardens and beautiful countryside surrounding them. These are a big tourist draw so there is plenty of gift shops, tea rooms and country pubs. Wherever you choose, your hire car will help you get there easily.
