United Kingdom
“While we will celebrate in capital class, our road winds on inviting you to explore every corner of this fair isle…”
London
On the surface, London is glorious grandeur with its palaces, parliamentary houses and leafy green parks. But scratch beneath the surface and it’s a multisensory experience built on rich diversity, underground innovation, and a full-scale spectrum that blends stiff upper lip sophistication with a left field love of creativity. From delicate cucumber sandwiches and afternoon tea at The Ritz to gin cocktails and ripe cheese in Soho, elegant Michelin dining or eclectic Camden market grazing; the capital is a smorgasbord of edible delights.
Edinburg
Nicknamed the Athens of the North thanks to its mind-blowing array of monuments and swathes of creative thinkers, Edinburgh is a jewel in the Scottish crown. A bright and lively pub culture invites fringe festivities, views gaze out between mountains and the sea, and you are spoilt for choice when it comes to whisky laced suppers. Scottish tapas, hearty haggis, chocolate like black pudding and creamy cheese platters washed down with lager; this is divine down to earth dining at its most decadent.
Cornwall
Crashing surf, Celtic kingdoms and colorful fishing villages welcome you to Cornwall. A fiercely independent spirit sweeps over the southwestern coast, where remarkable blue flag beaches transport you to the Caribbean, destination restaurants tempt you in, and sub-tropical gardens mingle with the tang of sea salt to send you in to a frenzy. Boutique hotels and handcrafted goods greet you at every turn, and when it comes to food; these shores have a certain penchant for foraging both the land and the sea. Indulge in pig and cider nights beside crackling fires, chow down on buttery seafood and flagship fizz, and taste your way from farm to table in cozy seaside hamlets.
Somerset
From Cheddar Gorge to shaded cider farms; Somerset is rural England at a softer pace. Patchwork hills of hedgerows, golden fields, and afternoon slumbers invite long meandering walks, lingering pub lunches, and lively nights soaked in Scrumpy and community spirit. The birthplace of Britain’s most beloved cheese, pubs serving up ethically sourced produce, and ancient coaching inns, Somerset captures a side of England that has seemingly been lost for centuries. When you aren’t getting your fill of gourmet pub grub there’s hippie vibes to be had at Glastonbury, deep dark caves at Wookey Hole, and bird watching on the beaches.
