England is up there with Europe’s very best countries to visit. From the bright lights of London to the ever-welcoming greenery of the countryside, England, as they say, simply has it all.

Luxury travel in the country is particularly rewarding. The quality of life here is exceptional as it is – if you can afford to buy into its more elite circles, the comfort and possibilities of day to day holidaying become endless. Here, then, is a quick rundown on the best parts of luxury travel in England….

Accommodation

From big-name city hotels to designer boutiques, country-seat mansions and middle-of-nowhere spas, England boasts an almost immoderate arrange of luxury hotels.

London, unsurprisingly, boasts many of the most famous. The Ritz on Picadilly Road, for example, and The Lanesborough in Knightsbridge. Elsewhere in the city, smaller boutique hotels are currently all the rage, with places such as The Portobello in Notting Hill and The Zetter in Clerkenwell ever popular choices.

Move away from London and luxury travel in England becomes all about countryside splendor. The country’s rural areas are famously idyllic, and, as long as you’re willing to brace some pretty chilly weather around winter-time, they’re also exceptionally inviting. Golf hotels, hotels in country mansions, and B’n'Bs-cum-designer-retreats are the name of the game in these parts.

Eating and Drinking

One of the great untruths about England is that it has no cuisine of its own. Thanks to its imperial past, the country has been learning the dishes of other nations since the 16th Century – it’s frequently been cooking with their ingredients, too. International dishes are certainly ever-present here (especially in London’s barrage of Michelin-starred restaurants), but you’ll also come across a lot of food that you’ll not find elsewhere in the world.

This is particularly apparent in the country’s coastal areas, where fresh sea fish is prepared with an art distilled over hundreds of years.

Getting Around

Despite what the English will tell you, England’s train system is exceptional: quick, extensive, and comfortable. Most trains have adequate First Class carriages, which means you can travel in style without having to book your ticket too early in advance (though doing so will likely save you a ‘bob’ or two).
