Cornwall: Famous for its varied coastline, rugged yet with delightful sandy beaches, safe bathing, exciting coves and quaint fishing villages. This is a unique corner of Britain, steeped in history but with a modern regard for the tourist. Here the visitor is invited to relax and enjoy at leisure the varied amenities in the company of the hospitable Cornish.
Ullswater, Cumbria: The lake at its western end, looking towards Stybarrow Crag with St Sunday Crag dominating the skyline behind. The main road from Kirkstone Pass to Penrith runs along the shore beneath the Crag and the views down thelake are very beautiful. During the season a steamer service operates along the 7 1/4 miles of the lake from Glenridding to Pooley Bridge at the eastern end. Ullswater is well stocked with trout and the elusive red-bellied char are also found in its depths.
Edinburgh is divided into two parts, the Old Town, medieval in origin, and the New Town, established around the 18th century. The Old Town was created by the flow of people between Edinburgh Castle and the Palace of Holyroodhouse which later became a trading area and is now part of the High Street. The New Town is a fine piece of Gregorian town planning featuring many elegant squares and crescents, including the famous Princess Street.
