Visiting the UK (2 Weeks, need help)
#62
Hever's a bit of a pain to reach.>>
agreed if you do it as a day trip, but not if you incorporate it in a longer visit to the other lovely places in that area - Chartwell, Chiddingstone, Westerham, Knole [and Seveonoaks] - are all close by.
And i know that that IS off topic, but I sometimes think that if the area south east of London were further away from the capital, more people would visit it.

Back to the itinerary a bit. I think you definitely need two days for York and three days for Edinburgh to do it justice. There is plenty to see/do in both places.
London has enough to do for a month or more. Have fun reading the guidebooks and determining what is of interest to you.

Thank you. Yes, with my most recent itinerary above, I have 2 nights in Yorn and 2.5, if night 3.5 days in Edinburgh. We will probably make it be 15 days on ground total to make that extra full day in Edinburgh work. I appreciate your guidance.

UK: welcome to fodors. But honestly??? Hundreds of hours??? Either a huge exaggeration, or you may be a bit OCD.
Most people look at a map (or program the sat nav) put the car in gear and drive off following the car in front, and, ignoring the screams coming from the back seat . . . just get on with it.

BTW - I stopped reading early on. The point where you said the Cotswolds are a nightmare and to skip the "damn place". The Cotswolds are a doddle - not scary, and mostly not congested.
But I suspect this is may have been posted to drive viewers to your site since you never asked / researched about UK driving here on fodors. . .

WOAH! I did miss a little bit of action since my hiatus! haha. I hope nothing offensive was said to you all who have been trying to help me. I apologize if any of my questions have stirred up conflict.
I showed my husband my projected itinerary and he actually really liked it! Now the extended research begins! We may even push the trip up!
