Hi!

This summer we're planning on visiting England, we're open minded about where we are going but a few cities that we must visit is London, Liverpool, Manchester, York, Nottingham, Amesbury and Newcastle

Our family is: 2 adults (38 & 37) 2 teens (16 & 15) and 1 infant (he will be about 3 months when we travel).

I was wondering if you could give us any tips about what you can visit in England, beautiful cities and etc.

Things I'd like to know:

- Where you can find cheap B&B's or camping places to stay at
- Train tickets, etc. what do they cost?
- Things we just must see
- If possible, is it expensive to rent a car and where can you rent it?


Please fill in with even more things that I need to know

Sorry to inform you that Interpals is not that great a place for these sort of requests.
There are other sites that are more in to this sort of stuff.

When you arrive, buy a family and friends railcard. You can buy this from any overground railway station ticket window. It will cost you £10 but will reduce the amount you have to pay for train tickets.

Hello!
I definitely recommend York, I used to live there - very historic and very beautiful. If you're travelling by train, you should use this website to check how you'll get around: www.nationalrail.co.uk - I use it quite often and it's very comprehensive  :)

Anytime we went to UK my parents would always rent a car. There'll be loads of car-rental places very close to the airport!

I'm not really too sure about train tickets cause whenever I went with parents they had a car and whenever I went alone I just stayed in London. I'll tell you this much though, for travelling around inside London get an Oyster Card! Absolute life-safer, they cost about 5 pounds but you'll save sooo much money!

And you should definitely visit Bath, probably the most beautiful city in the country!

http://uk.megabus.com/megatrain.aspx -> according to where you will go, you may also get some good deals with megatrain, there is also the equivalent for the coach, but with a 3 months, I would suggest to avoid it.
