Some of the Nicest Places You Can Still Go in Post-Brexit Britain

Whilst Brexit may disrupt some of our plans, there’s no reason to let it stop you from still enjoying a nice getaway in the new year. There are a number of places in the UK that are just as good as going abroad, including:

Dumfries & Galloway

A beautiful county in the Southern Uplands, with rocky shorelines and sandy beaches, its the perfect location for a quick getaway to the south of Scotland. Head more inland to find lush acres of grassland and forests.

St Abbs

This idyllic seaside town is a beautiful pocket of northern Britain, just south of Edinburgh on the eastern coastline. Visitors can expect stunning ocean views, dramatic rocky shoreline and plenty of opportunities for much-needed R&R.

Brecon Beacons

The Brecon Beacons in South Wales are the perfect place to take long countryside hikes and soak up some of the natural splendour Britain has to offer. The small town of Brecon also has the Llanfaes Dairy, which sells some of the most delicious ice cream money can buy.

The largest city in Britain and the heart of the United Kingdom, Brexit could be the perfect time to finally visit the capital, and enjoy the many landmarks and monuments that the city has to offer. See Big Ben and the Houses of Parliaments, or take a cultural trip to the Tate Modern and witness some of the innovative artwork.
