You’ll actually be able to get a tan here while enjoying the beautiful views! DriveNow offers car hire in London for your roadtrip! Parking at Lands End is the only thing you’ll have to pay for but there is no fee to explore! If you feel like doing some shopping souvenir shopping at the West Country Shopping Village is the place to go! img_01732. Of course you’ll visit London your roadtrip and for the best views of the city take a ride on the London Eye! You can see the Thames river, Big Ben and the Houses Of Parliament. If you are afraid of heights, try not to look down. The capsules that you ride in are clear so you have full 360 degree views! You won’t miss anything from up here! 5135579782_3fec04de8d_b3. Hiking along Hadrian’s Wall in the North of England is like something from a fairytale. Although the wall is not what it once was it is still a magical place to visit. It is 73 miles long and can get quite windy so I would advise bringing a warm jacket, even during the summer months. The wall is teaming with wildlife so make sure to bring your camera!2824010601_4555359066_o4. Stonehenge is one of the most mysterious prehistoric monuments in the entire world! Located in Wiltshire, England Stonehenge was built over 5,000 years ago by hand. Some of the stones weigh up to four tons, adding to the mystery. There is a wonderful visitor center here with bathrooms, a cafe and place to buy many interesting souvenirs to remember your visit. 14973816994_b94428f74b_k5. For a truly unique experience on your roadtrip visit the expansive New Forest in Southern England. It has been left very natural and there are very little man made structures in the area. The forest is close to the coast so you always have the option of hiking or mixing things up and visiting the beach. There are some board walks as well as self guided trails. The New Forest is great for people of many different fitness levels. The forest is the perfect place for bird watching, also if you want to have a picnic this is the place to go!

    I recently only visited Cornwall myself (being English) for the first time this summer, and I was amazed at how stunning it was. And I love that you’ve included two places local to me – The New Forest & Stonehenge, great post Anna 🙂
