| Public House in Cobham, Kent |
Pubs are a big part of English culture, and most of these sell home-cooked food at reasonable prices. And, of course, they also sell a great variety of local beers and lagers! With the strict smoking ban, be sure to avoid lighting up.
Coastline
There are some great seaside resorts to visit in England. Based in Northern England, Blackpool is home to a beautiful beach and the UK’s highest rollercoaster: The Pepsi Max Big One. Other outstanding seaside resorts include Torquay and Brighton; for the most beautiful beaches, visit Devon.
Steam Trains
There are many preserved steam train experiences situated in both North and Southern England, and these provide a scenic trip and a great day out. If you only have time to for one trip, choose Severn Valley Railway or the North York Moors.
Countryside

| Monsul Trail, Derbyshire |
England is home to some of the finest countryside and national parks. The Peak District, Dartmoor, Yorkshire Moors and the Lake District are scenic and peaceful; ideal for both walking and hiking. The Chiltern Hills is another great countryside with undulating hills rather than large steep peaks.
With the much anticipated London Olympic Games in 2012 British traditions are being remembered and revisited. But there’s a lot more to see beyond London
