Mobile Uk short break. Where?

We didn’t get away this summer and I’d love a few days away at October half term.

But I’m so uninspired. We are not big ‘walkers’ and would want something to do during the day.

Ideally we’d like some sights to see, coffee shops to visit, meandering through a town / city taking in the atmosphere.

We’ve often been to York / Edinburgh / Harrogate / Lake District so would like to find somewhere new, within a reasonable drive of the North East considering it would be a short break.

Any suggestions?

Lincoln, it's a lovely City, but I'm biased of course 😉

Not somewhere I know anything about other than there is a uni that didn’t quite make the shortlist. I’ll have a look.

Anywhere you can find availability! Maybe somewhere Derbyshire. Have a look at Ashbourne
