Hi guys!

 

I'm planning a holiday for sometime this summer. I went through loads of cities and towns in Google Maps and travel blogs, but there's too many choices to pick from.... Would you help me choose? grin

 

The criteria I have:

  • Relatively good weather (sunshine!)
  • I want to sit in nice little cafes
  • About 3 days max. in one place
  • Some green areas
  • Peaceful and relaxing urban atmosphere! (if that exists? haha)

Someone suggested Philadelphia for the cafes and nice atmosphere. Have you been? It's a bit far though even though sounds tempting. Are there any nice towns around the UK that I could visit perhaps based on your experience?

 

Any advice appreciated! Cheers

Wells in Somerset is nice. Great views & countryside. Very peaceful or Norfolk is beautiful

In the UK, you cant beat the Yorkshire Coast or the Peak District.

Further Afield there are 4 places i would recommend:

Berlin, Paris, Hawai'i and Gibraltar..

Thanks @madasaf1sh, Yorkshire Coast looks amazing! From the others you mentioned, Hawai'i would be interesting. Do you know if it's good also for those who do not drive? (like me)

 

@Anonymous Westward Ho! I hadn't even heard of! grin Cheers!

Edited to add: apparently it's written with an exclamation mark. How unusual!

I've been to Hawai'i twice,and you really dont need to have a car, ive usually scheduled a tour of Ohau and the north shore or the island,its a bargain for about $50 -$75..
