[quote=Anonymous]I think it depends on how much you are willing to pay. Plane tickets for Xmas are quite expensive now. In terms of the countryside, are you just looking for the Downton Abbey experience? It's possible to stay someplace in the countryside and do day trips to stately homes. You'll probably need to do a lot of driving in the rain for that; the train service to the rural areas is actually worse than it was in the 50's. Also, if it snows, you may get stuck, as the UK has had some trouble salting the roads in those rural areas during very snowy winters. You'll need to make reservations at a fancy hotel for your Christmas dinner. You might try Wales on their northern coast, near Conwy or Llandudno. There are a lot of little resort towns with castles and train service. Alternatively, you might try Kent, which has lots of castles, stately homes, cathedrals etc in close proximity. If you want hiking in the "green and pleasant land", go in the summer.[/quote]
