Summer 'staycation' holiday ideas

The UK is set to enjoy another spell of glorious sunshine after an exceptionally dry April, so why go abroad? Enjoy the UK as its very best this summer with a 'staycation'.
According to a recent Travelodge survey, over a third of Britons (35%) will holiday in the UK only this summer, suggesting that the 'staycation' phenomenon is far from a one-off. The figure is up 10% from last year; the economic climate, combined with the especially good British weather, being the main factors.
