When to visit England

The weather is probably the British people's favourite subject. Two days of cold weather force an intense discussion on the subject for a week and provide the tabloids with endless headlines. On the other hand, two days of heat above 25 degrees is labelled a "heatwave".

The reality is that, as a general rule, summers in England are rarely very hot - with the exception of a few days in July in the London area - and winters are not very cold, with the exception of the north of the country.

May can be rainy one year and sunny the next. August can be mild or rainy. In November, the temperature can be mild or it can even snow.

The best time to visit England is between May and June or in September and October. Sunny days (eventually) and pleasant temperatures (usually).

The weather in England can be summarised in one word: uncertain. Forecasts fail most of the time and the solution is to open the window in the morning and judge for yourself.

Any description of London is always incomplete and no adjective can do justice to this great metropolis. England's capital, with more than eight million inhabitants, attracted a record 31.5 million visitors in 2015.

London is personified by Westminster Abbey, Buckingham Palace, Hyde Park, the typical neighbourhoods of Knightsbridge, Camden Town and Notting Hill. Or the double-decker buses, the endangered red telephone boxes, the Tower of London, the Olympic Stadium, the pubs, theatres and Piccadilly Circus, Chelsea and Arsenal football clubs and, of course, the Underground or Tube.

If you've never visited London, you're committing a sin. If you've visited London several times and think you've seen it all, you're wrong. You'd need a lifetime (or two) to enjoy everything London has to offer.

Brighton, on the Sussex coast, has been a popular beach resort since the mid-19th century. The beach is lined with elegant Victorian buildings and part of its popularity is due to its proximity to London, just an hour away by train.

In Brighton you can also visit the famous Brighton Pier or the Royal Pavilion, a former royal residence, admire the traditional English gardens and enjoy the intense nightlife. This is also a favourite destination for LGBT people.

The Lake District, in the county of Cumbria, is England's largest national park and in July 2017 was inscribed on UNESCO's list of protected sites. This mountainous region, recognised for its great hiking and mountaineering, attracts more than 15 million visitors every year.

The park is home to the highest mountains in England - the peak of Scafell - and the longest lake, Windermere. The landscape is phenomenal, with lakes, hills, mountains and green valleys. In winter, snow is a constant presence and completely transforms the scenery.

Bath got its name as far back as Roman times, after bathing areas were built here to take advantage of the hot springs. Bath reached its peak of popularity in the Georgian era when the wealthy travelled there to visit the spas.

As well as being famous for its waters, the city is also a cultural and culinary landmark and an excellent example of Georgian architecture.

Oxford, an ethnically diverse city, is known as the home of the oldest English-speaking university in the world, the University of Oxford, which dates back to the 12th century.

In this city in the south-east of England, in the county of Oxfordshire, you can visit Norman castles and the Cathedral Church of Christ or Oxford Cathedral.

For many people it's something peculiar, for others it's a strange cluster of stones and for many it's a place of worship every solstice. Whatever the argument, Stonehenge, in the county of Wiltshire, is one of the most popular places to visit in England.

It was around 2500 BC that Neolithic and Bronze Age man began transporting giant stones from Wales, but it wasn't until 1600 BC that Stonehenge was completed.

As there are no written records of what led to the construction of Stonehenge, the mystery surrounding the structure remains unsolved. Some scholars believe that the monument was used as a ceremonial or religious centre.

You can also take the opportunity to visit Avebury, another prehistoric structure, made up of a larger stone circle, with fewer restrictions on visits and far fewer tourists.
