Sites across the UK

Ashchurch

Ashchurch is in the beautiful Cotswolds & Severn Vale, an area of protected landscapes and designated outstanding natural beauty. It has picture postcard villages, Tudor architecture and historic manor houses and castles. The neighbouring town of Tewkesbury has some of the best examples of medieval buildings in England, with half-timbered buildings and narrow alleyways. The surrounding rivers and flood plain have prevented the old town from expanding so that its long, thin profile has hardly altered since the Middle Ages

Hastings is a lovely town on the south coast of England. It has something to suit all preferences, whether it is a lively atmosphere (particularly in the summer) or tucked away peace and quiet in the old town and surrounding countryside. There are cool bars, bistros and restaurants existing comfortably alongside quaint little tea rooms, traditional pubs and shops. The attractive pier is home to arts and craft shops, and there is always the beach nearby.
