The UK is home to some of the most varied, interesting, and beautiful landscapes in the world. Whether you’re searching for romantic parks, wild and rugged wildernesses or an idyllic tranquil backwater, Great Britain seems to have it all.
So if you’re planning a staycation or if you’re from overseas and want to explore the very best of this beautiful country, here is my choice for 25 of the best and most beautiful places to visit in the UK (in no particular order)…
1. Polperro, Cornwall – often cited as one of the prettiest villages in the UK
The southwest counties are especially popular with holidaymakers, but tourism still hasn’t managed to spoil the chocolate-box pretty villages that reside here.
Polperro (located in South East Cornwall) is just gorgeous, sheltered from time and tide in a cliff ravine, it has a feel of a beautiful traditional fishing village that time forgot.
With its narrow winding streets, tiny traditional taverns, and cottages perched on steep slopes overlooking a tiny harbour Polperro is everyone’s idea of a picturesque Cornish fishing village.
In fact, it’s often cited as the prettiest village in Cornwall – which given the competition is quite an accolade!
When in Cornwall make sure you explore the many other beautiful areas including Newquay, The Lizard, St.Ives, Looe, Fowey Harbour, and Charlestown (where Poldark was filmed).

2. Richmond Park and Richmond-on-Thames – the former medieval hunting ground turned London’s beloved green space
Believe it or not, London is filled with a huge amount of beautiful open spaces and Regents Park, St. James Park, Hampstead Heath and Holland Park rank as some of the most picturesque and best places to visit in the UK.
Although I may be a little biased as it’s close to my home, but Richmond Park is my true happy place, a 2,500-acre site of historical and special scientific interest located in arguably the most picturesque part of London, the elegant and leafy South West.
Originally established by Charles I in 1637 as a hunting area the park today, with its ornamental gardens, ancient oaks and 600 red and fallow deer roaming freely, still manages to retain a faint medieval air.
It’s a very popular spot, especially in summer, for both locals and out-of-towners, come here for picnics, quiet walks, lazy scenic drives and of course, the obligatory deer-watching.
Also while you’re here make sure you pay a visit to Richmond-on-Thames itself, the quintessentially English and very elegant London Borough which resides right on the river Thames.

3. The Cotswolds – stunning countryside, thatch-roofed cottages and ancient mansions of honey-coloured stone
Perfectly preserved and beautifully presented, the area known as the Cotswolds is chock full of images of an England that time forgot.
A large place which has been designated an ‘Area of Outstanding Beauty’ it actually spreads across six different counties – all the way from the Chipping Campden to the south of Bath, but the majority is located in scenic Gloucestershire.
The chocolate-box pretty Cotwolds villages and truly stunning unspoilt countryside are practically spilling over with honey-coloured

4. Dartmoor National Park, Devon – a vast and craggy moorland home to wild ponies, rivers and forests
This is a great place and a popular holiday destination that has to be seen to be believed, Dartmoor National Park is a vast area of pristine natural wilderness located in the county of Devon, southwest England. It is a spectacular location with deep river valleys, expansive moorlands, craggy mountain tops, and an incredible abundance of wildlife.
There are many stunning locations to explore including Hembury Woods, an oak woodland that is home to dozens of bird species, and Teign Gorge, a wooded river valley filled with birds, rare butterflies and colourful wildflowers.
There are also dozens of cycle routes and walking trails throughout the park which take visitors past Bronze Age stone circles, Neolithic tombs, and a variety of other interesting historical sites.
There are also several gorgeous and quaint villages surrounding the park, which are the perfect place to stop for some shopping or a delicious pub lunch. A truly stunning and unspoilt location in the UK that is well worth visiting!

5. Brighton, East Sussex – the eclectic and creative seaside city and one of the best places to visit in the UK
One of the UK’s best-loved seaside cities, Brighton is quite an extraordinary place. While it may not have the traditional beauty of the coastal towns in say Devon and Cornwall it has a kitschy beauty all of its own.
Outside London, it also serves as an incredible creative and artistic hub with a bohemian atmosphere, a unique vibe and a collection of colourful and talented residents.
Often dubbed ‘London by the sea’, it’s nestled on a South Coast shingle beach and backed by amusement arcades and Regency-era buildings, Brighton has always been a place that’s played by its own rules, and that’s what I’ve always loved about it.
Visit for the fresh salty air, the award-winning restaurants, the excellent independent shopping (head for both the North and South Laines), its thriving art and alternative scene, lively nightlife and all the seaside clichés of a pier, fairground rides and candyfloss!

6. The New Forest, Hampshire – the stunning forest and heathland which is home to trails and native ponies

It is a wild and romantic place that includes the New Forest National Park, which is famed for its vast open heathland, ancient woodlands, moors, and picturesque forest glades.
The cute (and sometimes very inquisitive!) native ponies that live in the area are a major drawcard for many visitors to New Forest.
They are gorgeous animals that are frequently seen around Beachern Wood (near Brockenhurst). Keen animal lovers can even go on one of the many horse riding tours, which are a great way to explore the open heathlands.
There are a huge variety of walks available, including wildlife walks, town and village walks, family walks, and guided walking tours. Cycling is a popular activity in New Forest, with several long-distance cycling tracks that will take you through the best parts of the area.

Of course, sightseeing is a popular activity in Bath because of the many historic buildings and beautiful gardens throughout the city. History buffs would enjoy visiting the various Roman baths in Bath, from which the city obtains its name.

The beautiful buildings are well preserved and the timeless city seems straight out of the scene from the 1950s – the preppy look seems de rigueur and most people travel everywhere by bicycle.
Don’t forget to visit the world-class universities and try the omnipresent punting on the River Cam as one of the most romantic ways to see the town’s main highlights.

Scotney Castle is possibly the prettiest country house in the UK and one of the best places to visit in Kent. Although it is modest in size compared to other historic buildings, it features some unique architecture and is located in a spectacular part of Kent, in the valley of River Bewl.
Construction of the original castle began sometime around 1380, but it was continually added to over the next 300 years. The resulting building is a beautiful mix of architectural styles. Although most of this structure is in ruin, it is well-tended and a wonderful place to visit.
The “new” castle was completed around 1843. It was designed by Anthony Salvin in the Tudor Revival Architectural style.

Becky Moore – Owner, writer and photographer
My first true adventure began as a six month voyage around South East Asia as a fresh faced backpacker and ever since I’ve lived a semi nomadic existence, clocking up visits to over 40 countries. I’m a lover of US Road Trips, deserted beaches bathed in warm glow of a sunset, Cuban mojitos, travel destinations far away from the tourist crowds and all things Scandinavian – from cloudberry liquors to Nordic noirs. When not wandering the world and running Global Grasshopper, you’ll find me walking my ex Athens street dog in leafy South West London, strolling around the Brighton Lanes on random day trips, hunting for photogenic landscapes or daydreaming about my favourite places; Havana, Copenhagen, Italy, Borneo, Finland, Greece, Berlin, Laos, California and the surreal and beautiful landscapes of a wintry Iceland.
I’ve been quoted in Forbes, National Geographic, The Times, Yahoo Travel, Huffington Post, Business Insider, Thrillist, British Airways Magazine, Entrepreneur, express.co.uk, Wanderlust, Telegraph Travel, Daily Mail and metro.co.uk. Find me on Linkedin or Facebook.
Went to Polperro, Richmond Park, Cotswolds, Dartmoor National Park, and The Lake District, and others are not visited yet, will try to visit the next beginning of the year.
I would like to go to Polperro (located in South East Cornwall)in the UK. After seeing all pictures, I feel to go right now. I hope so, one day I and my family will go to Polperro (located in South East Cornwall)
A fantastic post. You have shared great information about visiting places of the UK. THe Uk is really a beautiful place!!!
I would love to go to Polperro, Cornwall because I was sitting in the boat and watching the scenery Polperro, Cornwall romantic afternoon. Great Feeling. Thanks for your post
Totally agree, I was in Cambridge on Sunday, so beautiful! I’ve been to nearly all of these places, love the Cotswolds and Richmond Park. Little Venice is just down the road from me, just a quick hop on a long boat down the canal.
Only a few more to tick off them 😉 Pleased you like our list!
Visited few of them and I totally agree! but I would put in your list even some coast cities like Whitstable and Herne Bay, such lovely places!!
Richmond Park and Little Venice! Are you having a laugh? Where is the Yorkshire Dales. The Trough of Bowland in Lancashire. The Gower Peninsular. Devon and Northumberland. Nowhere in London is worthy of this list. Nowhere in the South East is either.
Oh how nice sceneries,the pictures make me want to go to these places and check these places out!Thanks for making these wonderful scenerises list.
WOW! I never new the United Kingdoms had such beautiful sights! I will be visiting some of these sights soon because of a trip we have planned in July. So excited!
You missed the Yorkshire Dales off this list. Wensleydale and Swaledale have some fantastic and dramatic landscapes that definitely rival the Peak District. Good list, though.
Thinking positively to make one of my dreams come true, that of visiting the UK. YES I WILL.
visited all these places you should go there beautiful
The Lake District is without a doubt an absolute gem and we visit every year.
We leave every time with fantastic memories and great photos too!
I second this! Windermere in particular is a great place to visit: http://www.myseveralworlds.com/2012/10/30/travel-england-windermere-the-lake-district/
These photos are AMAZING by the way!
I live in lake district and will agree, the place is beautiful but by so many residents it is unappreciated, at 17 years old. i believe that my generation especially take it for granted as i cannot count how many times I’ve heard ‘ i cants wait to get out of this dump’ when actually the place is beautiful and completely mesmorising
I am lookin’ forward to experence the beauty of London… This place really looks stunning! wish to be there soon!
Hope you enjoy it!
Thanks for the great article and your “London for travel snobs” article! We’ll be going to the UK for 2 months and hope to see as much as we can when we’re not working. Please check out our travel blog if you get a chance, I’d love to exchange links!
Hey thanks! Glad to be of help and hope you have a great time in the UK! Sure shoot us over an email and we can exchange links 🙂
Giant’s Causeway is simply stunning. Very windy! I love the legends around it about the Irish giant who outsmarted the Scottish one!
I was surprised to see Little Venice on the list – I thought it was a little known gem! 🙂 Very beautiful indeed!
thanks! A very pretty little area of London 🙂
Wow… Really wonderful. Imagining to get there and enjoying the view
To get new friends and sharing everything.
My skype: rugyinsun.alwayslearns

I lived in Little Venice for 28 years. A beautiful location. I could see part of the canal that ran through Maid Vale from my home.
I often go back to visit friends.
that is very beautiful scenes in the world
gr8
Yes, I agree with most of your tick list and some great photos and places here to visit, but really- Little Venice as beautiful?? London is great for what it offers, but its not beautiful. (Only if you like Richard Curtis films.)
We’re not always good at keeping our Towns as pretty as the could be, but the Thames Valley and the home counties offer some stunning remote places… The North and South Downs…
Like the look of Glen Nevis, have done the drive to Glen Coe and that was stunning
Fantastic photographs. Fantastic shots – my favourite two, are I guess ones that mean the most to me – Hope Valley in Derbyshire and Wast Water at Cumbria.
I have to say that I always find Wast Water a chilling eerie place to visit and once did a sun-rise walk there – only the weather was so bad that there was no visible sun!! Did nothing to take away the shivers that the place gives me! However it is one of my husband’s favourite places in the Lakes.
Agree with Patsy, the pictures make me want to go and check these places out!! Thanks for making this wonderful list!
Oh wow I love this post Becky, and what a great checklist for me of “places to go next!” Thanks for sharing!
What beautiful pictures! I have visited many of these places on your list
and they are just as beautiful as the pictures.
