Wallace from Wallace and Gromit

Everybody knows this British guy.This toon/clay inventor has big ears to match his big love for cheese. Wensleydale is of course his cheese of choice.Of course the first time we laid eyes on the pair was way back in 1989 in the film A Grand Day Out in which the pair actually travel to the moon as they realise they have run out of the best food ever- cheese. Gromit, being the smarter of the two would have found it easier to go to the shops but of course he cannot talk at all being a dog.

The famous laughing cow

Is really here simply because it has become a world wide sensation and is actually the oldest on the list as the original drawing for the product was drawn by the creator of the product in 1924 and was the first cheese product to actually be branded in France.

Jerry the housemouse

This one is easily the most famous and the love of cheese comes simple as he is a mouse. Everyone must know what this one is all about. The hatred between a cat and a mouse and the never ending battle Tom and Jerry have with each other. Back in the days these cartoons used to contain comic violence but with the way the world is now have since been toned down in recent years.

So if you fancy yourself a bit of cheese why not go to a cheese festival and try a variety of different forms of cheese. UK family holidays can be catered around all kinds of festivals from cheese all the way up to music.

There are quite a few museums to enjoy in London. Two of the best out there certainly have to be the British Museum and the Imperial war museum.

The Tower Of London is famous for holding the crown jewels. On top of this it also used to contain prisoners, many of which were tortured and some are said to still haunt the place.

Sure London has some of the top places to visit if you are coming to England, from Big Ben to the Waxworks but it also has the busy streets, and the feel of a world capital, which doesn’t tend to feel awsome. Is London just somewhere to go on one of those family days out?

London is brilliant for someone coming over to see a bit of Britain’s famous history but show the current beauty of Britain, and that is of course, the countryside.

Wales is a place to go to see the real side of Britain. Of course cities such as Cardiff are busy but again that is one of Britain’s biggest cities, head just outside for a beautiful countryside stay in a cottage. Wales has many other things on offer such as climbing, fishing and golf. Why not try some famous Welsh foods. Salt marsh lamb, Welsh black cattle and farmhouse cheeses are just some that you should certainly try.

So if you are thinking about UK family holidays then instead of choosing London, Edinburgh or Dublin, why not give Wales a try?
