Short Breaks Uk
Hi all,have asked similar question before, ideas for a short break. In UK in October good pubs, interesting place in day, not too expensive! Xx we are in Liverpool so quite central

Barlow in Derbyshire. You could stay at the Devonshire Arms, there's two other pubs in the village and a Michelin starred restaurant. For the day you can visit Chatsworth, the Peak District including the Monsall Trail walking plus various other places to visit.

Why not come to visit us here in East Anglia?
Norwich is a delight, with plenty to see and do (and no shortage of good pubs!).

Ipswich is less well-known as a tourist destination but still has a lot of history and offers a good base for touring. (It's also got loads of good pubs - guided tours available on request! Hic!).

East Anglia can be explored easily without driving by using Anglia Plus rail tickets. (£18.10 for one day or £36.20 for three days, with a third off for railcard holders). They give you unlimited travel after 0845 on weekdays (or at any time at weekends ) throughout the area:

If you don't fancy East Anglia (WHY NOT?) the 'usual candidates' for short breaks include York

and Edinburgh

both of which I'm happy to recommend.
Glasgow is now also a very popular place to visit (but I've not been myself, so I can't comment on it personally):

Whitstable is delightful (with plenty of great pubs and restaurants) and a good base for exploring:

This B&B is outstanding:

Absolutely beautiful. Feels really secluded but there is a hotel/bar 2 mins away. Just a short drive to lots of pubs/cafes.
