Where is the single most beautiful place you have been?

The Highlands of Scotland are breath-taking...









...as long as it's not lashing with rain.

Agree with this. We did the NC500 a few years ago and it was truely stunning. A drive along theough the highlands and then the west coast of northern Scotland was truely beautiful.

Not much to look at but the people and vibe was beautiful at any time of day or night

Places like Santorini, the Amalfi Coast, Queenstown in New Zealand all rank highly for me, but the best of the lot was Boracay in the Philippines just under a year ago.

Sunsets were incredible, the beaches and the sea pristine, and I had a top floor hotel room/studio with huge balcony and hot-tub that gave sweeping views over White Beach and beyond. Felt like you were on top of the whole island. Spent 6 days there and waking up to that view every morning really was something else.

I used to regularly cross the Harbour when I worked in North Sydney. I enjoyed every single time I went across it.

One of my favourite sights was Komodo Island. Something like this...

So many places, so little time! If one good thing comes out of this pandemic it will be the realisation that freedom is precious and time could be short. Explore! I have been drawing up a mental list of places to visit.

Probably been mentioned but there aren’t many more beautiful places than the Etihad on a warm May/August afternoon when the skies are blue. Can’t wait to get back to that seat.

Durdle Door/Lulworth Cove.
Grand Canyon

Live a 30 minute drive from Lulworth Cove and on a summers day the walk over to Durdle Door is fantastic. Wolbarrow Bay just outside the ‘closed town’ of Tyneham is stunning also as is Hengistbury Head In Bournemouth which is my local beach walk.

Nice and close to home, the Conwy valley takes some beating imo.

You will probably be front row after the changes!

I know, we’re on row c in 115 so it will probably be 2/3 from the front moving forwards. Great when we’re kicking towards the SS.

Lofoten, northern Norway

Went in high summer - just amazing

Love Holywell Bay, Cornwall.

 

[tolmie's hairdoo]

Baros Island in the Maldives.

It cost me £16k for two weeks on our honeymoon and was like nowhere else on Earth.

Absolutely jaw dropping. Had sharks swimming under the glass floor of our water bungalow.

Otherwise, the Scottish Highlands and Skye when not able to splash out.

Spent all my summer holidays as a kid on hollywell bay. Used to play in the river running along the beach and stayed on the campsite just further up. Fantastic place.

Yeah, this lockdown has made me want to travel again. However, having a family is limiting. Far from the days when I picked up my rucksack and buggered off for a couple of years.

I know what you mean, we’re in the same position. Just the smaller trips I wanna do with the kids. Make sure they grow up knowing and loving the lakes. Take them to Cornwall and see where I loved holidays as a kid. Can’t do the big holidays so much now, but still so many places to visits and great areas to see.

Hoping to do the Scottish highlands this year . Fingers crossed

St' Lucia is pretty hard to beat for beauty but southern Ontario (Algonquin park and the Muskokas being two examples) can give anywhere a run for its money.

We did the Scottish highlands in June in the motorhome .. The west coast is stunning and though we didn’t do the islands this time we did take the train from Fort William to Mallaig which is highly recommended
