I haven't looked at the data but I imagine foreign tourists mostly go to London and a few venture out to nearby hotspots. People within the UK seem to be branching out to every half-beauty spot we have in every corner of the Isles.
- alistairSH 5y agoSample of 1 but my last 3 vacations in the UK have skipped London. My impression is anybody visiting for more than a week will likely do a few days in London then move on to someplace else (of my friends, that’s usually Scotland for camping/hiking).
- retube 5y agoClearly you have never been to Oxford, Bath, York, Edinburgh, Lake District, Cornwall etc etc which are teeming with visitors from the US, China, Japan and many other countries during the summer...
- tonyedgecombe 5y agoNot this year nor last. I live just outside Oxford and visit Bath regularly and both have been quiet compared to normal.
- have_faith 5y agoI've been to most of them but teeming isn't a word I'd really use. They're also the most obvious hotspots outside London, I was mostly attempting to make a point about all the 2nd-tier and 3rd-tier locations that are currently very busy with UK staycationers.
- GordonS 5y agoDon't forget the Scottish Highlands and Islands! We did the North Coast 500 this year (we live in NE Scotland, but obviously aren't going to get anywhere further afield for now!), and it was really difficult to find accommodation because so much was fully booked.
