 London Self-Catering Accommodation

You're planning a weekend away with your partner. You want somewhere with great shopping, he wants somewhere with beautiful architecture, he wants somewhere with great nightlife while you want somewhere with amazing restaurants. So what do you do? Go your separate ways and catch up after the weekend? Or go to the city that has it all, London.

England's capital city is a wash with luxury hotels and while London really does have a million reasons to visit here are the top ten.

Eating out
Whatever your tastes you will find the perfect restaurant in London. Highlights include the super classy Hakkasan serving Chinese cuisine, the ultra trendy restaurant The Ivy and the chic sushi restaurant Nobu but with so much variety you're sure to find something to suit.

Theatre
London's West End is world famous and a trip to London is not complete without a visit to the theatre. Whether it's a fun and rowdy night out you're after or an evening of culture there are shows to suit everyone.

Houses Of ParliamentHistory
London is steeped in history and there are attractions to prove it. The London Dungeons and The Jack the Ripper tour are just a couple of the attractions on offer.

Shopping
From Oxford Street and Regent Street to the world famous Harrods store London is a shopper's paradise!

The Thames
The most famous river in the UK offers a host of attractions. Take a boat along the Thames or walk along its banks and stop off at one of the pubs and bars along the way. Or, if you have a head for heights, take a ride on the London Eye and see the city in all its glory.

Tower Bridge, London, Greater London, EnglandStar Spotting
If you're the type of person who gets excited when you spot someone off the TV on the street, London is the place for you. With so many celebs choosing to live in the capital you are sure to spot someone famous.

Music
London has some of the best music venues in the country. From the huge stadiums such as Wembley to the quirky pubs and smaller venues like Koko in Camden, if it's a gig you're looking for you're spoilt for choice.

Architecture
From St Paul's cathedral to the Houses of Parliament to the Royal Albert Hall London is host to some of the UK's most beautiful buildings.

Nightlife
London's nightlife is second to none. From the glitz of the West End to Camden, the ultimate in retro cool, those seeking a big night out will not be disappointed.

Buckingham Palace
Of course, a visit to London is not complete without a trip to Buckingham Palace, the home of the Royals and probably the most popular tourist attraction in the UK.

Learn English in England amidst culture and history - learn the mother tongue in the country of the language's birth.

City Guide: Blackpool

Blackpool is a beautiful and relaxing seaside resort located along the Northwest coastline of England. With well over 6 million people visiting the city each year, it is one of the premiere holiday destinations in the entire country. Home to exciting attractions like Blackpool Pleasure Beach and Blackpool Tower, and well as amazing restaurants, comfortable and welcoming hotels and bed and breakfasts, it makes the perfect summer holiday or even just a weekend getaway. There is something for everyone at this seaside town, whether you're looking to experience the warm sandy shores as a family, reminisce about the nostalgic age of English past, or celebrate youth with thrilling nightlife. So what are you waiting for?
Perhaps Blackpool's most well-known and popular attraction is the funfair Pleasure Beach Blackpool. It was opened in the Victorian era as a fun amusement for holiday goers, and some of the buildings there today date back as far as the 1930's. Modern day visitors are drawn to the famed roller coasters, many of which are for intense thrill seekers only! The adventurous should experience a ride on the Pepsi Max Big One, the Irn Bru Revolution, and the Big Dipper. Along with these exciting rides can be found games, vendors, and plenty of entertainment. 

Another popular attraction for visitors to Blackpool is the Blackpool Tower, a Victorian tower much resembling the famed Eiffel Tower in Paris. A glass elevator transports you to the top of the tower, where an observation deck offers incredible, breathtaking views of the scenery below. Of course, the view isn't the only form of entertainment here. Each of the 7 levels in the towers boasts a different adventure for visitors. Be prepared to enjoy entertainment like the popular circus, the dungeons, an aquarium, a ballroom, and even a Jungle Jim's indoor playground, a favorite for children. With so much to do and see within the tower, you'll be forgiven for spending the entire day there!

Blackpool is so popular in large part because of the three piers it boasts, which no other seaside English resort can offer. All three of the piers date back to the 19th century. The North Pier is a relaxing place to stroll, with few vendors and a calm atmosphere. The South Pier might be the exact opposite, thanks to rides, roller coasters, and plenty of arcade games. Central Pier is located, as might be expected, between the two piers, and boasts several fine dining establishments and bars. The Golden Mile is an incredible promenade linking the piers together, home to countless museums, nightclubs, food stalls, and attractions. Several hotels in Blackpool are conveniently located just walking distance to the Golden Mile Promenade and the three piers.
