Andy, follow the coast down to say, the Wirral/N.Wales coast. On the way down you have Southport (anyone know if you can you still land on the beach there?) and then the great view of the Liverpool water front. Fly over the Wirral to the North Wales coast, it is superb to look at too with, as someone has just said, Snowdonia not to far away. Enjoy it, whatever you decide.
