Cornwall is the nation's favourite resort and the Lake District the top attraction, according to a survey published on 20 November. They are likely to receive increasing numbers of visitors as 91% of British people plan a holiday in the UK next year, a 23% increase on this year, according to a study by cottage letting agency, cottages4you.
Economic factors are one of the reasons for the boom in "staycations". Nearly two fifths of people (39%) say affordability is the main reason behind their plans, electing to save money and holiday at home. The nation's biggest staycationers are from Southampton, with 97% of residents planning a holiday within the UK next year. Norwich and Nottingham (both 96%), Manchester (95%) and Sheffield (94%) complete the top five.
Cornwall is the favourite UK resort, followed by Scotland, the Lake District, London and Wales. The Lake District is there again as top attraction, followed by Roman cities, castles and historic locations (places such as York, Edinburgh and Chester), then come Alton Towers, Blackpool Pleasure Beach and the London Eye.
We very much look forward to welcoming you all back to Cornwall next year...but of course you could always buy your own little piece of paradise, live here all the time and get the chance to welcome all of those fantastic visitors in person!
