Hi everyone,
I'm excited to share our planned family trip to the UK and seek your expert insights! We're a family of four, with two boys aged 10 and 16. We're combining city and countryside experiences and are particularly keen on uncovering hidden gems. Here's our itinerary:
London (3 nights): We're planning to hit major spots like the British Museum and Tower of London. Since my wife and I have visited London before (but not with the kids), are there less-known but fascinating places you'd suggest?
Cotswolds, near Stroud (3 nights): We'd love recommendations for scenic drives, quaint villages, and activities that kids would enjoy. Any favorite spots for a memorable family experience?
Pembrokeshire, Wales (3 nights): We're staying with friends who'll guide us around. It would be great to know any particular places or experiences we shouldn’t miss while we're there.
Corwen, Wales (4 nights): Our focus is on exploring Snowdonia and Conwy. Are there any off-the-beaten-path locations or local secrets in North Wales that you can share? We're also considering a day trip to Liverpool for the British Music Experience and perhaps exploring the historic walls of Chester. Any tips for these excursions?
Clitheroe, England (1 night): Our brief visit here is motivated by my ancestry because my great great grandmother came from nearby Downham. Before departing from Manchester, could you suggest any must-see spots or activities that might be particularly meaningful?
We're all set with our travel arrangements and are excited to delve deep into the local culture and outdoors. Your suggestions for attractions, eateries, and any hidden treasures would be greatly appreciated. Thanks for the help!
