www.funforlesstours.com England is the foundation of our heritage. From it we received our language, our most endearing literature, our freedoms, our sense of humor, and our general outlook on the world. Many of us trace our individual roots to England, Scotland, Wales or Ireland. From Shakespeare to Harry Potter to CS Lewis to King Arthur and his Round Table to Beatrix Potter or Jane Austin, the culture of England continues to shape our world and define our place within it. Its heroes and villains are part of our everyday consciousness. Its castles, cottages, palaces and ancient ruins fire our imagination and haunt our thoughts. Come with us to the sceptered isle as we reminisce of everything from kings to the little people and enjoy the green wonder of Scottish highland lochs, the rocky cliffs of Ireland and the rolling hills of the English countryside and the wild beauty of Wales. Heres a partial list of our fantastic sites: Tour of London, Tower of London, Windsor Castle, Stonehenge, Oxford, Warwick Castle, Stratford-upon-Avon, religious history sites, Northern Wales, Tintern Abbey, Conwy Castle, Alnwick Castle (Hogwarts), Roselyn Monastery, Edinburgh Castle, Glasgow, Scottish Highlands, Ferry to Ireland, Belfast, Ireland Coast, Dublin and more.

Likewise, a Xmas card designed by Potter in 1893 featuring three guinea pigs in a basket, sold for a remarkable £12600. This walk starts at Birnam (for Dunkeld) railway station, on the Perth-Inverness line and begins by walking through the famous ‘BP’ gardens. This is the beginning of the ascent of the 404m Birnam Hill on the edge of the Highland boundary fault line: a walk through mainly deciduous woodlands passing around the eastern flank of the Hill before climbing from the south. A short detour leads to the ancient Stair Bridge and magnificent views across the Disney-esqe landscape to the turreted castle that is Rohallion Lodge, complete with lake and surrounded by colourful, forested hills. Returning to the ascent path which steepens with the final climb to the summit of the hill, where a huge cairn (also referred to as the King’s Seat) awaits. Dramatic views ensue; both up Strath Tay to Dunkeld and the Highlands and down towards Perth. In this particular video however, its the autumnal colour views that are the reward.
