    augustus 14, 2013
    door | beaches, coast and seaside | guides | wildlife and nature

    Bottlenose dolphin with her young, Moray Firth. Pic by Peter Asprey. Coastal critters! We have bucketloads of them in these isles. (Or possibly ‘lorryloads’ – have you ever tried to fit a blue whale into a bucket? Not recommended.)


    We don’t mean jellyfish flopping to our shores in the heatwave or tasty mussels either – we’re going on about the other …

  2. For the Yoof of Today – camping with teenagers

    augustus 6, 2013
    door | guides




    'Get up! We have Historical Sites to see!'
    Possibly because I don’t possess any of my own, I am disproportionately fond of the Yoof of Today. It can’t be denied that they can occasionally be troublesome (commenting loudly on one’s arse in the street) and occasionally annoying (playing music on 'mobile phones' on the bus), but overall they …

    A-ha! Britain's best DJ. Pic by Benabomb. Sensible folk have been recognising for some time that this land is the place to be for holidays.


    There are all sorts of reasons for this, we’ve pointed out many times – people argue more abroad, you don’t have to stand in the airport in your socks and with …

    Bournemouth. Pic by Chris Downer.
    Wistfully, we asked our Facebook and Twitter followers last week about the best beaches in the UK. It was wistful because it was a weekday and the law does not (yet) allow for mandatory beach-going once the temperature goes above 25° (oh, how any party who proposed that would get …

  5. On a roll – our British cheese round-up

    juli 17, 2013
    door | guides

    Almost worth getting married for. (Pic courtesy of Caws Cenarth Cheese.) It was one of the Pitchup.com team’s fault. Bringing in a wonderfully whiffy cheddar to the office, which got us musing on Britain’s best cheeses. (After we’d wrestled the sniffy Somerset specimen from his mitts, that was.)


    Painstaking research – well, a quick  poll – has revealed (unusual) agreement among …

    'There was a crooked pub...' We’ve covered mad museums and British beasties, and now our wide-eyed and happy chronicling of the more unusual elements of the country continues.


    The UK is full of what we can only describe as individuality, which along with castles, Beefeaters and rolling cheese down a hill are most …

    Stonehenge at sunset
    It be the summer solstice this Friday! (And the winter solstice down under, but that’s a tad far to go on a weekend camping trip.) And then there’s

    Midsummer’s Day

    on Monday, which we think says ‘long weekend’.



    We’ve rounded up some celebratory solstice events and festivals for you to …
