When we finally make the move back to the UK, one of the first things we plan on doing is to join the National Trust. Hubby and I LOVE to visit old British stately homes, castles, cathedrals, gardens... anywhere with historical and cultural influence, and the National Trust will allow us to do that rather more cheaply! As an author, I find these places truly inspiring. In fact, some of them even appear in my novels (see below to download some of them for free!).
The National Trust is actually a conservation charity that protects historic places and green spaces, and opens them up for everyone to enjoy. Cool huh?
Here are just a few of the places we've visited over time (I know not all of these places belong to the National trust though!)...
