You will get lots of suggestions, Nanamar! How long have you got? Sounds like you are interested in our history, so I would suggest basing your tour around some National Trust properties. There are a good few all over the place!

I live in the States. I’ve spent a lot of time the last year rather obsessed with the crime novels of Elly Griffiths, Ann Cleeves, and Elizabeth George. I also have family near Ipswich. I want (when it’s safe again) to travel to the UK to see some of the places depicted in the novels that have, frankly, gotten me through the most difficult period of my life (so far!). I’ve only been to London. In your opinion, as residents of the UK - what not to miss? what are must sees? Cornwall, Wales, Shetland, Norwich, the Lake District, etc? I will most likely be alone on this journey.
