From snorkelling with seals in the Isles of Scilly to the best sweet shop in Oxford, the website features reviews and comments written by professional travel journalists who have an insider's knowledge on the area.

Whether you're looking for a seaside retreat or a city break in a B&B, Cool Places currently covers 35 main destinations across Britain and new locations are expected to be added as the site develops.

The best part? There are special offers to be had on hotel bookings, restaurants, train and coach tickets and there's already an App up and running to make planning your staycation even easier.
