    After spending about 8 months over 3 trips to the UK (most of that time spent in England), today we're discussing ten of the best places to visit in England. From iconic locations like Bath to lesser-known travel destinations like Lincoln, this list was difficult to compile because we have loved so many places we've travelled. We hope this list gives you news ideas of places to visit or makes you decide to finally book a trip to a place you've wanted to visit. Did we miss a place you think deserves to be on the list? Leave a comment and let us know!

      Next time you are back, if you are in Whitby, travel to Gothland, the whole village was the setting for a 1960s based program called 'Heartbeat'

      I am rewatching your videos at the moment. I really miss your UK and European adventures.
      Do you fancy a long ride on a double-decker bus through some of the nicest countryside Yorkshire has to offer? The Yorkshire Coastliner service runs a bus service from Whitby to Leeds accross the Yorkshire Moors and into the Wolds. Although Leeds might be an interesting city to visit, you don't have to do the whole trip as Malton, Pickering and my favourite village in Yorkshire, Thornton-Le-Dale are part of the service, as is York. SERIOUSLY, look at some pictures of Thornton-Le-Dale!
      If you come back to York, maybe look at the history of chocolate in the city - you'll maybe be surprised at the number of modern day items that originated there.
      Also, a dive in to the railway history might be interesting. Even if you are not a rail or engineering buff, the National Railway museum will eat up your time without you ever noticing.

    Wells, Glastonbury & Cheddar Gorge in Somerset. The New Forest, Bournemouth, Chain Ferry From Sandbanks (Up until recently, the most expensive place to live in England) to Studland. One of the best beaches in the uk. Then on to Corfe Castle all in Dorset. The Norfolk Broads, Wroxham as a base (Take a boat trip or hire one. If you hire one you could call at every pub along the way or even moor up for lunch) Horning, Wells-Next-The-Sea, Sandringham. All in Norfolk. If you’re ever in Cornwall again, Padstow,Falmouth,Polperro,Mevagissy & Charlestown where Tall ships are sometimes moored, Used for filming Poldark. Next to CharIestown is Carlyon Bay, Just a lovely beach now but once had a renowned music venue, The Collosium, where every band in the world had played from Kiss to Blondie to Motörhead to The Smiths. If they were playing in the summer, they would have had a great time there with the beach on the doorstep. I live in Derbyshire so would recommend Chatsworth House, Bakewell (The home of The world renowned Bakewell Tart! .Haddon Hall, Ashford In The Water, Monsal Dale & Matlock.

    Love your channel and honestly this is by far one of the best Top Tens I’ve viewed of the many out there. Agree with so much (I was born in the Lake District and raised in York) and yes, possibly you could have made it a Top Twenty so could have included places like Rye (you did show an image at the end), Ludlow, Oxford, Wells and a heap more towns as well as areas like the glorious Yorkshire Dales or Dartmoor in Devon, where I now live. Well, there’s a reason to make more videos! Thank you 🙏

    Fascinating seeing an American's view of the good things about Britain. I think if you've seen enough of the main tourist sights and want to get away from the crowds, Ludlow in Shropshire is well worth a visit, it's a charming old town on a winding river with a medieval castle, lots of old houses, 12th century church, street market and great food. You can even get to it by train, but if you're driving Its easy to get from there to mid Wales with its stunning scenery, quiet roads and pretty towns and on to Snowdonia for mountains and seaside towns such as Barmouth and Aberystwyth.

    You didn't visit London? Surely not. It is a collection of places not just one city.
    Honourable mentions:
    Chester - Roman town and mediaeval walls.
    Saint Albans - More Roman ruins with a fab cathedral and vibrant commercial centre.
    Cambridge - University town with vibrant youth and historic spires.
    Durham - Meandering River Wear with ancient cathedral and old town.
    Cheddar Gorge - Caves and nature. Evidence of early man.

    Knaresborough, Malham cove + gorge, Settle/ingleton and surrounding hills, Catbells, The Great ridge/mam tor at sunrise (common for cloud inversions), catching a play at minack theatre (Cornwall), joining or spectating one of the many unique festivals like the north York Moors railway 1940s festival, viking festival in York. I do photography based in Yorkshire.

    So lovely to see a top 10 list for England that doesn't include London, which is obviously a great city, but also a cosmopolitan international city like New York, wonderful to see Americans step out of the capital and see the real England. A lot of places have already been mentioned but if you like York, I'd check out Canterbury & Salisbury if you haven't been.

    A lovely list of places to visit and lots of memories made in each. I live in the neighbouring county to The Lake District which is in Cumbria so it is only a short drive for me, but love it so much. Thank you too for pronouncing Keswick correctly as it does tend to confuse people as the w is silent. I hope it's not too long before you are able to return to the UK and can explore more new places and perhaps re visit those you are fond of too. Best Wishes.

    had a few nice visits in recent years. Peak District (Chatsworth, Matlock, Bakewell, Buxton), Kent to see Hever and Leeds Castles, Severn Sisters at Eastbourne, Hastings including Battle. Lincoln for Castle and Cathedral. Liverpool for Mersey ferry ride and Waterfront. Also went to North Wales (Conwy, Caernarvon, Beaumaris and Harlech Castles) and Portmeirion. Just went to St Albans yesterday for Cathedral and Roman theatre. I can also recommend other Cathedral cities eg Peterborough and Ely. If you like history of English Civil War then Newark for Castle and Civil War museum. Nottingham has caves, Castle and interesting National Justice Museum. Huntingdon for Oliver Cromwell museum.

    Did you not visit Shrewsbury? Birthplace of Charles Darwin. Home to the worlds first skyscraper? Home to Percy Throwers Dingle? The River Loop? Tallest Doric Column in the world? With its medieval streets and passages, ancient town walls, market hall and history it's equally on a par with York and Chester. Wroxeter Roman City is 2 miles outside.

      I was going to say Shropshire in general, but specifically Shrewsbury with it's amazing indoor market, the Abbey, so many shops it's almost overwhelming including Tanners with it's excellent wine and spirits, and then there's the classic touristy places to visit too.

    So sweet and a lot of pie-love in evidence. ❤ I always thought the expression ‘as American as apple pie’ is odd because pies are about the best thing we have and we have definitely been making them since before the Mayflower!
    My suggestions are Dartmouth on the South Devon coast, plus around a bit to stunning Bigbury-on-Sea with Burgh Island.
    Lynton and Lynmouth on the north Devon coast - but you HAVE to drive over Porlock Hill to get there. Go through the Valley of Rocks to Lee Abbey tea cottage (I used to work there many years ago) and there are NO BETTER SCONES IN DEVON OR CORNWALL and yes, I do know that kind of talk could get me killed, and Lee Bay.
    My favourite beach in the whole of England is just North of Bude, and is called Sandymouth. There is no beach at high tide, so check tide times.
    Of course, Wales doesn’t get a place in this English list but North Wales via Chester would be great - Caernarfon castle is fairly unbelievable- and South West Wales (Pembrokeshire) is lovely, and there there are several great beaches but Barafundle is super. Even as an Englishman I have to admit that Wales is often just BETTER THAN ENGLAND. And yes, those that didn’t rise to the scone statement will probably be on the war path now.
    Scotland- it’s the West coast and I left a big part of me (and a good chunk of my wallet) drinking at Tobermory distillery. Yes the whisky I bought was £105 but I’d do it again in a heartbeat.
    In fact. I’ve just talked myself into going downstairs and pouring myself some. Is that wrong for a Wednesday evening? Well….

    Nice video well presented however this is your opinion, mine would include parts of Devon like Dartmouth, Lynton & Lynmouth & Clovely. The North Norfolk coast Wells harbour & Holkham beach. Cheddar Gorge in Somerset, Corfe castle & the village in Dorset, i hope you come again and explore more and travel to different parts of England.

    I have followed your journey for a long time on TH-cam from your taste tests years back in the US to your travels across the UK and beyond and I must say I am thrilled you have visited Newcastle so often! but also saddened as I have never seen you guys out and about in my city. It would have been nice to bump in to you and offer a 'hello' - next time you visit Newcastle you must go to Victoria Tunnels, a under ground tunnel below the city that has been around since 1839. It spans over 2 miles and you can take guided tours and I believe there is a tour you can take that involves drinks in a local pub either before or after the tour.....its also meant to be haunted down there!
    Next time you guys are here hit me up, be lovely to meet you for coffee or something!

    I'm 63, my wife and I spent a month in England when I retired at 60. I was bound by the rail system rather than a car which limited my ability to see cities and towns, especially in Cornwall. There's a couple you left off which I think must be seen. If you love English history like I do and they include Winchester and Canterbury . Winchester is the initial capital of England until around 1100, and Canterbury is the famous site where Beckett was assassinated by the king. It's absolutely amazing to see ancient queens and kings of England, like Matilda, buried in the cathedral at Winchester. In addition, Winchester holds the oldest Bible, the Winchester Bible, which was written in 1200 and on display. Carlisle is also a must see, it was a huge defense against the British by the Scots when the city of Carlisle was in original Scottish possession. I was able to get a Brit rail pass with 22 flexible days within the 30 day window, which was perfect. I was also able to see a Manchester United game while in Manchester. Awesome awesome awesome & the pubs ahead of time are outrageous. UK is my absolute favorite country and I love visiting London, who wouldn't. We traveled there in September, October, and found the trains in some case to be very crowded, buying a reservation is a good idea, especially between London, Manchester, Manchester, and Edinburgh where a lot of folks were standing the whole time.

    THE MALVERN HILLS, an AONB, home of Radar (WWII), the very first email (sent by HM Queen Elizabeth II), the Morgan Car, Malvern Water (read about Darwin and his daughter), Malvern College, ELGAR (the British Composer), C.S.Lewis (Chronicles of Narnia) and his visiting friend Tolkien. The list goes on nearby, historic Worcester and the Civil War. Herefordshire and the Wye Valley. Steam Trains……just go there.

    I lived in York for a couple of years. When traveling for work in the US, I've often recommended Americans go to York. The way I describe it is that York has a history as long and storied as London, going back to being Roman cities, with periods it was a competing capital to London. York stopped being a big political centre with the Tudors, also it never was a big industrial centre during the industrial revolution which means it wasn't flattened during that nor flattened by Nazi bombing in WW2.
    So it is like London would have been in late medievel times on the cusps of the Tudors with aspects till going back to Roman times, like the London Museum try to explain with small artefacts, except in York a lot of the protective wall buildings are still there fully intact in York.

      I was about to suggest this tiny city of Wells as one of my favourites. How could the scissor arches and the clock in the cathedral, the number of statues on the façade, the medieval street, the bishop's palace and its swan bell not impressed! What about Castle Drogo with its unusual history, its croquet lawn and its dramatic siting, the pleasant footpaths leading down to a delightful cafe/pub by a torrent. Not too far for the Lydford gorge. The whole area is an enchantment for walkers.

    Most Americans visit London, and maybe Edinburgh. It really frustrates me to see and this is great to see you showing many more areas. And your top choices are in the North which is overlooked by US Tourists. Taylor Swift of course also loves the Lake District and in fact may be there this very moment.

    As someone who knows england very well can I recommend
    1. Oxford( the most glaring omission)
    2.Brighton
    3.Durham
    4.Bristol
    5.Skipton (Yorkshire)
    6.Norwich
    7.Stratford -on-Avon
    8.Buxton(Derbyshire)
    9.Shrewsbury
    Personally I'm not a fan of Chester, it can't hold a candle to York! Similarly I much prefer Oxford to Cambridge.

    A most enjoyable potpourri of places to see in England, even if Devon (rhymes with Heaven!) doesn't get a mention. I was

    Brimham Rocks and Plumpton Rocks, both not far from Harrogate, North Yorkshire. Also the Forbidden Corner funhouse in the Yorkshire Dales is a must. It's hilarious as you encounter the burping turret first. But go on a less summer-seasonal time of year as it is a maze/trail and can get very busy.

    If you want to visit somewhere quiet and scenically amazing the next time you are in the Lake District think about Ennerdale Valley. Yes you can drive through the Village BUT to really see IT, park the Car/Vehicle and walk from the Lake to Black Sail Youth Hostle (ONLY accessable on Foot) set near the end of the Valley with nothing else but 360 degree views of the surrounding Mountains. You have a choice of routes Lakeside, or Roadside. Keep an eye out for the Local Deer and if your lucky ask at Ennerdale Youth Hostle for further ideas of how to spend the day. Nearby on your left (IF looking UP Valley over those Mountains) is an old Slate Mine that is open to the Public. I have used Ennerdale to recharge my internal Batteries for more years than I care to remember. Peace and quiet abound and not to mention the scenic Beauty. Tony the Retired Hiker

    You need to head to Liverpool, definitely. I’m originally from that part of the country and went back there for uni. It’s such a cool, walkable city, and despite all the tourists heading to Mathew St, the best place for Beatles history is the Jacaranda pub. The cellar bar has great gigs, the upstairs room has individual booths where you can play vinyl on your own turntable. Then jump on the train to Port Sunlight (I think you’ve been to Chester but that’s easily accessible too). You can also get the train up to Blackpool from there. Liverpool itself has so many great museums and a fun vibe. It’s very much your thing.

  • @Swisswavey

    All good choices but there are so many more that a top 100 couldn't do justice. Cornwall and the Lake District could each generate a top 50 of their own.
