Things to do

On A Budget

You needn't break the bank to enjoy the very best of England. Go fossil hunting on the Jurassic coastline, explore wetlands in the South East and lose yourself in a sculpture trail in the Forest of Dean.

There are markets to explore and cycling trails to navigate; free museums and galleries and guided walking tours - from historic Exeter to Chaucer's Canterbury.
