12 Most Beautiful Towns in the UK to Visit
What are the most beautiful towns in the United Kingdom? Just one visit to the UK can never be satisfying. Brits have a lot of great illustrious and epic places to visit. The country is full of beautiful, breathtaking, and magical locations. The challenge is where to find those locations. You will realize that the country is dotted with the most beautiful towns. Once your gaze is fixed on those places, you wouldn’t want to spend just an hour in big-hitting and popular places like London, Edinburgh, Cardiff, and even York before you head straight to attractive towns nestle in the nooks and crannies of the country. To help you identify some of these, we present in this video, the 12 most beautiful towns in the UK to visit.
12. Bangor, Northern Ireland
We will take you first to Northern Ireland, the region of the UK least often regarded. And we’re looking at the town of Bangor. We have to quickly tell you that this is the only town in Northern Ireland on this list and it’s in County Down.
This is a scenic seaside town that, kind of, puts the rest of Northern Ireland to shame with its extraordinary beauty as we discovered. The town whose name means “horned curve,” likely taken after the shape of Bangor Bay, had become a famous seaside resort during the 19th century for Victorian holidaymakers. Adding to the beauty of this town are many of its ancient architecture.
11. Painswick, England
It’s now the turn of Painswick, a town in the Stroud District in Gloucestershire. We reckon with Painswick as the loveliest village in Cotswolds. But prettiness doesn’t end there; it’s rated high among the prettiest towns in the UK. This town established itself during the historic wool trade boom. It’s now known as the Queen of the Cotswolds because of its heritage architecture and unique landscapes. The town, with its stone buildings and magical topiary trees, is packed with beauty as one of the most picturesque towns in the UK. Visitors admire the streets of Cotswold Stone houses and cottages. The stunning Rococo Garden opening in warmer months makes that season memorable.
10. Sandwich, England
The next is Sandwich, a historic town in the Dover District of Kent in southeast England. The civil parish lies on the River Stour. Its many original medieval buildings and several public houses listed in the old town walls, almshouses, and the White Mill are among the beautifiers of this town. The attractive town which was a major port is now more than 3 kilometers from the sea no thanks to the disappearance of the Wantsum Channel. Still, its historic center has been preserved. Those visiting this rustic, and romantic town described as the completest of the medieval towns in Britain are bound to see a lot of historic sites and attractions.
9. Cirencester, England
Cirencester, a market town in Gloucestershire, is known as the capital of Cotswolds. This town is also steeped in fascinating history. Lying on the River Churn, it is on the tributary of the River Thames. As the largest town in Cotswolds, it has to its west Cirencester Park. It is the seat of Earl Bathurst and also the site of one of the country’s finest landscape gardens, laid out by Allen Bathurst, First Earl Bathurst after 1714. There are also Abbey House, Roman Amphitheater, and other ancient yet beautiful locations.
8. Portree, Scotland
This is the first and only Scottish town on this list of the 12 most beautiful towns in the UK. Nestled in rolling hills surrounded by waterfalls, Portree has many quaint colorful cottages. There are plenty of places to wine and dine in this largest town on the Isle of Skye, which doubles as its capital, in the Inner Hebrides of Scotland. The harbor is open for business in this Scottish gem. If you’re planning a visit, this is an area to have a bigger exploration of Skye. Among the places tourists consider to count this island worthy of their visits are the Old Man of Storr, the impressive beauty of Quaraing, and Kilt Rock.

Places to see in ( Goodwick - UK )
Places to see in ( Goodwick - UK )
Goodwick is a coastal town in Pembrokeshire, south-west Wales, immediately west of its twin town of Fishguard. The coasts of Wales were subjected to Norse raids during the Viking Era and, in the latter 10th century, Norse trading posts and settlements became established. The place name probably derives from a combination of the old Norse forms: góðr (good) and vik (bay or cove) giving góðrvik.
Compare formation with Reykjavík (Smoking Bay) where reykr = 'smoke'.[1] However the South East facing hillside of Goodwick is sheltered from prevailing and salty SW winds and therefore naturally well tree-covered compared with the exposed headland above and the wet land of the bay. Many older developments in Goodwick have the name 'Goedwig' meaning forest - Goedwig Terrace, Villas, Chapel etc. Thus an alternative explanation for the name may be that it was Goedwig and Goorvik may just have been a happy coincidence for the invaders.
Goodwick was a small fishing village in the parish of Llanwnda, but in 1887 work commenced on a railway connection and harbour, and the village grew rapidly to service this. The main industry is now tourism although in the town's industrial past brick making was once an important industry. Some fishing still takes place on a small scale but most activity is centered on Milford Haven. The local beach, Goodwick Sands, is where the defeated French invasion force assembled prior to their unconditional surrender on 24 February 1797.
The harbour was constructed by blasting 1.6 million tonnes of rock from the hillside to make a 900 m long breakwater. The quarried-out area became the quay. The harbour was finally opened on 30 August 1906. Planned to be the end of the Great Western Railway's line and its major sea port, replacing Neyland, problems with the harbour (known as Fishguard Harbour) prevented larger ocean liners from docking. Accordingly, the harbour has a smaller inner breakwater protecting the remaining open side.
In October 2011 plans for Fishguard & Goodwick Marina were revealed in the Western Telegraph. The developers Conygar who hope to invest £100 million into the project have submitted plans to Pembrokeshire County Council for a 450 berth marina, 253 new residential flats and a 19-acre platform for the potential expansion of the existing Stena Line port. The scheme would also create a publicly accessible promenade and waterfront, and visitor parking as well as workshops, stores and ancillary facilities. If approved most of the proposed new developments will be sited by reclaiming land from the sea bed within the two existing breakwaters mainly near the current 'Ocean Lab' and alongside the existing ferry terminal access roads. Conygar have also exchanged contracts to acquire an eleven-acre site for a lorry stop and distribution park on the perimeter of the Stena Line owned port.
Fishguard & Goodwick railway station served local rail travellers from the town, and from nearby Fishguard, until the line was effectively closed to such passengers by the reduction in service to boat trains only in 1964. After this, trains only served Fishguard Harbour and the station fell into disrepair. Following investment from Network Rail and Pembrokeshire County Council the station has now been re-built and was reopened for passengers again, on 14 May 2012. It is served by the boat trains and the newly introduced local trains.
( Goodwick - UK ) is well know as a tourist destination because of the variety of places you can enjoy while you are visiting Goodwick . Through a series of videos we will try to show you recommended places to visit in Goodwick - UK

Hackney Wick and Victoria Park - Cool Places to See in London

Thurso, Caithness (Travel Guide): Explore Scotland's Vibrant North Coast Capital #nc500
Thurso is the northernmost town on the British mainland, sitting at the same latitude as Juneau, Alaska. It marks the end of the British rail network and ferries set sail for Orkney from the adjacent harbour at Scrabster. The popularity of the NC 500 route is also attracting more visitors to this friendly town. There are plenty of accommodation options with both historic and chain hotels as well as a large camp site overlooking the beach.
Visitors will find an array of independent shops and cafes. In this film I visit the studio and workshop of Lindsey Gallacher as well as the first arts and crafts market promoted by the Thurso Community Development Trust. Visit the Trust's facebook page to catch up on their programme of events.
The town's name derives from Thor’s river or Bull’s river, depending on which historian you listen to. It lies in the historic county of Caithness, which was settled by the Vikings and has strong ties with Orkney across the Pentland Firth.
The oldest surviving building in the town is St Peters church (1125) which is wait for it, almost 900 years old. A truly Viking relic, even older than St Magnus cathedral in Kirkwall, Orkney. It remained in operation until 1832 when it was replaced by the handsome form of the church of St Peter and St Andrew. The grid pattern of central Thurso was laid out in the 19th century and the town then changed little until its population nearly doubled in the 1950s when the nearby Dounreay poor station was opened. It is now in the decommissioning process but remains an important local employer.
The swells of the Pentland Firth have made Thurso the Surfing capital of Scotland, holding the Scottish, British and European surfing championships. The views from the town beach, towards Dunnet Head and Hoy are stunning.
The adjacent village of Scrabster is the embarkation point for the Northlink ferry to Orkney as well as being a busy commercial link with the distant Faroe Islands and Iceland and a thriving fishing harbour. Not surprising you can be very well fed in Scrabster (I go there regularly)!
Is Thurso worth visiting? A popular Google question. Answer: Yes (watch the film!)

Duncansby head | Wick | John O Groats | Scottish Highlands | #Travel #Tourism | NC500 | road trip
Isn’t this a piece of nature?
Duncansby Head is the most northeasterly part of both the Scottish and British mainlands, slightly northeast of John o' Groats. It lies approximately 20 km east-southeast of Dunnet Head, the northernmost point of both the Scottish and British mainlands.
If I can then I would probably set a camp here or any of the locations nearby and stay as many days as possible. A few moments is not enough at all to soak in the beauty of this wonder provided by nature.

Hackney Wick - London’s BEST KEPT secret!
Hackney Wick is in an area of East London - a stone's throw away from the Olympic Park. Historically, an industrial area and rather neglected due to its low socio economic demographic. But in recent years has undergone major investment and regeneration into a hipster area surrounded by swanky apartments, craft brewers, cool places to eat and drink. You can also enjoy a lovely canal walk too. The Olympic park is nearby, surrounded by a large open space to walk and enjoy with friends and family. The Olympic stadium is now the home of Premiership side, West Ham United.

Wick Town Walk, Scottish Countryside 4K
۞
All support is hugely appreciated and it helps me keep the channel going!
No talking, just walking. Exploring the Scottish Countryside. A nice gentle walk around Wick, a historic town located in the northeastern part of Scotland, situated on the east coast of Caithness in the Scottish Highlands. It lies approximately 100 miles north of Inverness and about 15 miles south of John o' Groats. The town is split into two areas by the River Wick, with Pulteneytown on the south side and Wick proper on the north. Wick has a rich history that dates back to the Viking era, with its name derived from the Norse word vik, meaning bay. The town grew significantly in the 19th century during the herring boom, becoming one of Europe's busiest fishing ports. A beautiful walk! Do enjoy :)

About Dave's Walks
Hi there, I‘m Dave! I've lived in the English Countryside all my life, and I love it! I enjoy walking, and couldn’t help but notice just how beautiful the UK can be away from the cities. I found myself inspired and decided to get some camera equipment and make some walking videos so I can share my walks of the beautiful countryside with everyone!
I mainly focus on small towns, villages, picturesque landscapes, rolling hills and mountains, forests and canals, all along the coastlines in England, Scotland, Wales, and who knows maybe one day further afar!
I upload every 5 days 11am GMT (3am PST) (6am EST) (4.45pm IST) (8.45pm ACST)

A Massive thank you to all channel supporters that have bought me coffee!
It really does help me so much! Not just coffee but also things like petrol, car maintenance, accommodation costs, parking costs, admission and entry fees to places I wouldn’t normally go to, it really does go a long way helping me make content for everyone!

I use the free version of Davinci Resolve 16 to do some really basic editing. Mainly making sure the sky isn't over exposed. It's from Camera straight to YouTube. No cuts, no fancy business, no talking, just walking.
