The red buses in London, Big Ben, Edinburgh’s castle, and all those tourist attractions are typically on anyone’s itinerary when they travel to the UK. However, the countryside that lies beyond the cities is so reminiscent of a storybook that it almost seems staged. Villages in Britain are more than just quaint little towns. Time seems to stop in these picture-perfect pockets of charm, history, and cobblestones, and there seems to be magic around every corner. These charming villages are therefore worth more than a cursory look for any foreign tourists eager to take a break from the major cities.
