Don’t hibernate through the winter months. A journey through the mountains, across the moors, into the forest and sleeping countryside during the chill days can be a magical experience. The winter gives the cities and the tourist honey pots of summer a different perspective. There are few crowds and there’s plenty of time to stand and stare.
A winter break can work wonders. A change of scenery and making new friends can be the fillip that sees you through to spring knocking at the door. So don’t pull up the drawbridge during the short, dark days…get out there!
A great way to start sorting out that figure after the excesses of Christmas is a good walk. The Ramblers have a Festival of Winter Walks featuring 300 rambles through the countryside: www.ramblers.org.uk/walkfinder. In the bleak midwinter, birds of prey are particularly active and provide a good reason for visiting the many RSPB reserves around the country. Check out some ‘bird specials’ at www.rspb.org.uk. A novel way to enjoy the snow in the Cairngorms is skijoring – pulled across the snow on skis by a horse. Visit www.newtonmoreridingcentre.com. The Jorvik Viking Festival, in York, is a long-established celebration. Join the Viking hordes by visiting www.thejorvikvikingcentre.
Just a few ideas to get you out and about and when you think about where to stay please use our brochure of bed and breakfast accommodation – The Little Green Book – and websites www.bedandbreakfastnationwide.com for B&B homes, and www.holidaycotagesnationwide.co.uk for self-catering. Both websites also have a wealth of information about places to visit and things to do.
All the B&Bs and cottages have been inspected and specially selected and provide high quality accommodation. They range from country cottages to town houses, farmhouses to manor houses – all offering that special value for money that is good bed and breakfast and self-catering. And the hosts are delighted to help you make the most of your stay with their local knowledge.
