Bit of a northern bias there, mate.

The Cotswolds
Warwick Castle
The Great Fen (particularly at night for stargazing)
Cambridge
Ely
Peak District, particularly Bakewell (never been to Lake District so can't recommend it personally)
Natural History Museum
Jurassic Coast
The Snake Pass

One of my 10 would undoubtedly be Stonehenge. You don't get a grasp of its magnitude until you're up close.

I would add:

Greenwich maritime museum

Fish n chips in Whitby

Lake district in winter
