  10. BOGNOR REGIS…there’s lots and lots to do, and marvellous scenery around the resort.

  13. I would love to return to Bournemouth as it was the very first holiday I went on with my husband 34 years ago!! Many thanks!

  16. I’ve been planning to go to Scarborough for a while, liked the scenery and never been to

  35. I have never been to Cornwall so would love to visit some of the beaches down there like Newquay

  36. Somewhere on the Welsh coast, as this area is apparently beautiful, and I haven’t had the pleasure of seeing and exploring this area.

  37. I love Dorset, so somewhere near Poole, Bournemouth or Christchurch would be perfect xxH

  38. Absolutely anywhere in the UK as long as the sun is shining.
    swimming in the sea, relaxing on the beach, a stroll to a country pub and a ploughmans lunch washed down with a few pints of the local brew. Then back to the beach to sleep it off

  42. Hope Cove in South Devon – a fantastic picturesque, former fishing village with sheltered sandy beaches

  50. Brixham in Devon. The town is itself is great with its picturesque harbour and lots of interesting independent shops and it also has amazing countryside all round, especially along the river Dart

  52. Weymouth is the place for me. Dorset is my favourite English county. Full of butterflies in summer.

  53. St Ives is the place for me! I went there for a week 20 years ago. Since then I have been to other British seaside towns but I still prefer St Ives.

  56. Somewhere in the North east of England like Berwick for the lovely beaches

  57. Goodness, nominate a seaside break?? SO MANY places to try, though we’ve been to a fair few. Somewhere near Poole perhaps, that sort of Weymouth, Wareham part of the world, great scenery.

  59. North Berwick is hard to beat.
    It has a clean beach, picturesque harbour from which you can get boat trips, the Seabird Centre and an unspoilt High Street.

  61. I would like to go to Blackpool, whenever I see it on the tv it looks full of like and brings back childhood memories of day trips to the seaside

  64. Bognor Regis as I have never been to West Sussex but have read good reviews of that part of the world.

  65. My partner’s never been to the Isle of Wight or Northern Ireland, so either of those would be good 👍

  68. Scarborough. We spent our honeymoon there, I would like to see how it’s changed

  73. I would to go back to North Wales where we used to have family holidays more than 70 years ago!

  77. I would like to try some Northern seaside resorts, maybe Scarborough? I live near Kent and visit the West country regularly so this would be so different.

  79. Anywhere in Wales I’ve never been but have heard how beautiful some of the beaches are

  80. We love anywhere along the Yorkshire coast and would really like to revisit Lyme Regis

  82. Anywhere in Scotland – it’s a long time since I went there, and I’m missing it!

  88. Anywhere on the Isle of Wight as it’s many years since I have been there.

  89. The Cavendish Hotel, Exmouth looks nice. Can’t beat a Devon holiday, lovely coast and beaches.

  92. Porthcawl

    A subtle hint to Alpha Holidays, as I’ve booked their 2026 Super Saver Holiday!

  93. Porthcawl*
    *A subtle hint to Alpha Holidays, as I’ve booked Alpha’s 2026 Super Saver Holiday!

  94. A derby Creek in Lincolnshire where we spent holidays as children. I would love to relive those memories and see the changes

  96. I’d choose Margate for the Turner Gallery as well as the other seaside attractions and coastal scenery.

  106. The Lake District is an area I have never explored and this would be a great opportunity to do so.

  107. Likely Brighton as iy has something for everyone and if it gets overwhelming there are lots of pretty small places around it

  112. The beach at Bamburgh Castle is just one of my favs as so beautiful and serene.

  113. Dawlish of course, I live there but no harm in walking down the road to the beach 🙂

  118. love to re visit blackpool as I was 4 last time I visited, now I am 65 so past time I went

  119. For me it would either be Tenby with it’s lovely beaches or Dunoon with its scenery…

  122. Bournemouth is just the ultimate seaside place. Soft, golden and endless beaches, wonderful pier and such a beautiful prom. Summertime perfection

  123. It would have to be Weymouth, I haven’t been there since I was a child

  126. shanklin isle of wight-went 30 years ago as friends on bikes-time to do it in a civilised way

    1. I’d love to visit Torquay, a classic English Riviera seaside town with a picturesque harbour and easy access to the beautiful South Devon coast

  130. I’ve never visited the Northeast coast of the UK so my choice would be Scarborough
