Beaver Creek Resort - Short Trips From London

Then let's take a look at some other great locations that can easily be reached for a day trip, if you're planning to stay in the capital. Many visitors to the UK choose London for their base when visiting the country.

It's a place where you will rarely be short of things to do, from musicals to plays, with great entertainment. The great thing about staying in London is that it truly is a city that never sleeps.

Bars and nightclubs, with top quality restaurants, you'll find that England's capital city is a great place to enjoy the nightlife, in the evenings.

Including getting to see a bit more of the real England, there are plenty of benefits in spending time away from the city. Be sure that you get out and explore some of the rest of the country too though.

You can reach the the most southerly part of the county in less than 90 minutes by car (or train from London Waterloo) and you'll find that the short trip is well worth it. Has plenty on offer, hampshire, my own home county.

This part of the country reflects many visitors ideas of what England should be like, in many ways. Country pubs and village greens, complete with thatched cottages, it also has a large number of great unspoilt English villages. The New Forest, hampshire includes one of the UK's newest National Parks.

If you don't leave London and its immediate surroundings then this may well be a part of the country that you'll miss out on.

Can be reached in less than an hour by London and has some great transport links, the ancient capital of England, winchester. Any discussion of the joys of a visit to Hampshire would be incomplete without making mention of Winchester.

The site of William the Conqueror's Castle and its renowned links to King Arthur, it also boasts a Norman Cathedral. It's also heaped in history - this is the place where Jane Austen lived during the final years of her life.

Winchester is a truly mystical place and is part of a wonderful part of the country - be sure not to miss it.
