Spoilt for choice round here. Maritime Greenwich is probably top of the A list. I like Boone's Chapel. Teeny tiny little grade 1 listed church built by Wren for some nearby Almshouses. Seats about 20 people.

We had some fun shenanigans at St Peter's Seminary in Cardross one evening. It really lends itself to kinky outdoor fun...

The Gower, the UK's first AONB. The Brecon Beacons, waterfalls you can walk behind or there's the Loughor Viaduct a short section of historic wooden railway bridge rotting away on the mud at the edge of the Loughor Estuary. Take your pick.
