Scrolling through Bloglovin' something has become apparent to me. Everyone seems to be away lapping up the sun in a variety of stunning locations whereas I am still here braving the windy and rainy British excuse for Spring. So, I have decided to compile a list of some of my favourite places to visit in the UK that are outside of London as everyone knows London is a great place to visit but it isn't the only great place to visit. Source Tintagel Tintagel in Cornwall was ...

Bath Fashion Museum
You may recall that way back in September my auntie and I went on a trip to Bath to attend the Jane Austen Festival (if you missed it, you can read the post here). On that day we decided to have a look around the Fashion Museum. I am pleased that we did because it was amazing seeing all the really old dresses as well as some more recent ones - including, to my amazement, some dresses that Princess Diana wore accompanied by the letter she wrote to the designer. We were given a little audio tour ...
Jane Austen Festival & Bath
Recently I went to something INCREDIBLY exciting which was, as you may have guessed from the title of this post, the Jane Austen Festival in Bath. My auntie and I only went for the day and it really was one of those days where everything is so amazing and you just feel the need to take pictures of everything. We got the train to my grandparent's house (which is closer to Bath than my house or, indeed, my auntie's house) the day before and stayed there overnight so were able to set ...
Cardigan & Cardigan Bay
On the last day of the first half of our trip which we spent in Pembrokeshire we decided to go to Cardigan Bay as my mum had heard that it was really nice there. I only wanted to go because it's called Cardigan and I hope to buy a cardigan there (to no avail) because I could then say 'this is my Cardigan cardigan'. Just me? Anyway, my mum was adamant that we could get to the beach by walking from the town. We couldn't. However we were able to go to two places that day so it wasn't all ...
St David’s & Whitesands Bay
During in our stay in Pembrokeshire we went for a day out to St David's which is the UK's smallest city and I can affirm that it was small for a city. In fact, it would probably be fairly small for a town. But what it lacked in shops, it certainly made up for in gorgeous architecture and pretty houses which managed to please me anyway. And there were gift shops - who doesn't love a good gift shop? In the town we walked past this church which I though was very pretty. These were ...
Fishguard
Recently my family and I went on holiday to Wales. For the first 3 days we stayed in Fishguard then for the following 2 days we stayed in Mumbles which is a town right next to Swansea. Although Fishguard wasn't a huge place, it had some really nice little shops, amazing views and a wide array of pretty, colourful houses so I did enjoy staying there and mooching around the town. In order to get to the harbour we had to walk down (and then back up later) a massive hill. Despite the walk ...
