In episode 77 of the UK Travel Planning Podcast, we wish everyone a happy Christmas 2023. Hear not only our favourite things to do and places to visit at Christmas but also from our preferred partners too.
From the glittering Christmas markets in Bath to winter walks in the far North of Scotland, from the fairy-lit cottages of the Cotswolds to the historic Christmas decorations at Castle Howard in Yorkshire, we cover an exciting range of attractions, adventures, and personal traditions that make the UK magical during Christmas!
Each guest shares their favourite Christmas traditions and attractions, painting a vivid picture of their respective regions during the holiday season. Imagine caroling in the stable with donkeys at Puffin Croft, or capturing the festively lit city of London through your camera lens! And don’t forget about those pleasant countryside walks in warm boots and the joy of discovering unique gifts in the shops of the Cotswolds!
We also share our plans for a traditional British Christmas, which of course includes tuning into the King’s speech on Christmas Day and a football match on Boxing Day. So, cosy up with a cup of hot chocolate and let’s plan the perfect UK vacation together this Christmas.
