When to visit the United Kingdom
Introduction
The best time to holiday in the United Kingdom is undoubtedly the summer. Between May and September, temperatures are higher, and the natural world comes to life. It's the perfect time to get out and explore – whether that's hiking sunny trails or cruising around the Emerald Isles. And, luxury rail operators will tend to run services during the warmer months, so if it's Belmond's Royal Scotsman you're interested in, plan your trip for April to October.
