Nestled in the heart of South West England, Bristol is a city with a vibrant chequered history, spanning centuries. From the Clifton Suspension Bridge with panoramic views over the Avon Gorge to the magnificently imposing Bristol Cathedral, Bristol is brimming with architectural and cultural marvels.
Studded with a multitude of historical and natural attractions, Bristol is best explored through road excursions. Travellers intrigued by ships must visit Brunel’s SS Great Britain, a top attraction in Bristol and the world’s first great ocean liner. Those drawn to natural wonders cannot miss Durdle Door, just a couple of hours of ride away from Bristol. This world-famous natural limestone arch on the Jurassic Coast promises a sublime view of nearby hills and bays. A shorter road trip from Bristol is the Mendip Hills, offering a stunning view of verdant pastures and limestone hills at the end of an equally stunning journey.
