The UK
is packed with locations offering great adventure holidays for the
thrill seekers amongst us. From mountain climbing and ski-ing to more
gentle pursuits such as horse riding and trekking, there is a place in
the UK to suit
all tastes and many holiday cottages are on hand to act as a perfect
base.
Scotland
has an abundance of excitement on its doorstep and Aviemore
is the place to go to enjoy some great British ski-ing.
All over Scotland
there are opportunities for climbing and the area around Ben
Nevis is the most popular with visitors and locals alike. Scotland too
has some excellent canoeing and white-water rafting and if you enjoy a
more sedate pursuit then Scotland,
as the home of golf, is simply the ideal place to arrange a golfing
holiday.
Wales,
of course has its own superb range of mountains and intrepid climbers
might like to hike the Welsh 3,000`s. This involves
scaling the 15 peaks in the country with a height of over 3,000 feet
and is a similar task to climbing the Scottish Munros.
A simple yet popular pursuit is quite simply that of walking: The more
adventurous can attempt the journey between Lands End and John O`Groats
or alternatively walk the Pennine Way or the length of Hadrian`s Wall.
All of these provide challenges for anyone on two wheels and are
therefore popular with cyclists also.
Across the United
Kingdom there are great opportunities for horse riding which
offers some spectacular views all around our areas of outstanding
natural beauty including the Lake District, the Yorkshire
Dales and the Peak District. This is a truly beautiful country and
horse riding is a perfect way to enjoy the lovely scenery.
All across the country there are outdoor pursuit centres that take care
of all your conventional activities and can also cater for extreme
sports such as bungee jumping, parachuting and hang-gliding.
Cornwall
in particular is a perfect destination with a wide variety of sports
and pastimes in which to take part. In particular, fishing
is excellent here and both sea-angling and fresh-water fishing can be
found in abundance.
For many years now, Cornwall
has been known as the place to go for British surfers and the city of Newquay
is at the hub of this. Newquay
is a vibrant place full of adventure seeking visitors and surfing is
just one of the many actives that you can do here.
Across Cornwall
as a whole, you can enjoy some excellent nature walks, picturesque
cycling and the county has more than its fair share of first class golf
courses and this can prove to be an ideal holiday destination that
promises to offer the best of everything.
Newquay
again comes into its own here as it offers something for everyone:
Whether you want quality fishing, an excellent golf course, pleasant
walks and rides or exciting surfing then Newquay
can accomodate. If you`re planning a trip here then there are
many Newquay cottages
cottages around to make your adventure holiday one
that you will remember for a lifetime.
