A catalogue of intriguing historical buildings (including the impressive Windsor Castle and Canterbury Cathedral) and captivating landmarks make for some truly fascinating days out – not to mention the countless opportunities for watersports at one of the many beautiful beaches along the south coast. Leave the mainland behind for a self catering holiday on the Isle of Wight where you’ll find sweeping coastlines punctuated with white cliffs and gardens aplenty – as well as some truly unmissable festivals. Get lost in the enthralling history of 1066 country, sit down for a lavish afternoon tea, or spend your time in Sussex enjoying the results of a British vineyard – when in Rome! One of the best things about these southern beauties is their close proximity to London, meaning you’re never far from a weekend away or a day trip to the beach.
