British couples go on most getaways
5 September 2008
Loved-up Britons are taking advantage of the beautiful areas of the UK and going on romantic breaks, according to a new survey.
|
A study by tourism website VisitBritain found that UK couples go on the most overnight trips.
Couples take short getaways to locations around the UK more than any other demographic in the country.
Last year, there were around 60 million overnight trips made in 2007, with people spending around £400 each.
Most of the visits were made in London, with some 25 million travelling to the capital.
Elliott Frisby, a spokesman for VisitBritain, said: "Our cities are benefiting from regeneration programmes, contemporary attractions, new hotels and architecture. We benefit from centuries of history and heritage attractions as well as a unique culture."
