It is almost considered the norm nowadays for people to take time out from their daily routine to experience perhaps a back-packing adventure around the world, or a trip to Australia for a year.

Indeed, the majority of holiday goers venture abroad. The attractions are obvious: guaranteed sunshine, golden sandy beaches and cheap beer.

It’s fair to say that the UK tourist industry finds it difficult to complete: if asked when they last had a holiday in the UK, substantial numbers of holidaymakers, many of whom would probably consider themselves well-travelled, might be left scratching their heads.
