With acres of quaint countryside to be explored, bustling market towns, historic houses, and art galleries, most of which have free admission, there is something to keep everyone smiling. As well as the many free walking and cycling routes waiting to be explored.

Although we have tried our best to ensure that they are free, we would like to remind you that small charges for things like parking may still apply.
