Southern England in Autumn
The south of England is beautiful, especially during the autumn. Every region has something special to offer: travel to the beautiful New Forest in Hampshire where you can walk, cycle and even ride a horse and its even better between September and November. Another must visit is Blenheim Palace, surrounded by medieval oak trees and a rose garden. There is so much more! How much you want to see and do is up to you with our short break options.
