England For Gay Trip Destinations

By Howie Holben

England offers a vast array of gay tours for singles and couples, which is one of the reasons that it continually remains among the most popular gay travel destinations in the world. With a highly visible lesbian and gay community, numerous gay events throughout the year and a much greater equality than that given to the LGBT community in the U.S., England is the perfect setting for gay vacations. Between the enticing London club scene, the restful shores of Brighton, the beautiful English countryside and the diverse urban landscapes, gay travel tourists of all kinds will delight in the gay vacation options that England provides.

Visitors on a gay vacation to London will not want to miss Old Compton Street and the Soho district, which is a thriving gay and lesbian neighborhood filled with gay bars, clubs, restaurants and businesses. Soho is close to many of Londons most famous tourist hotspots, like Leicester Square, Covent Garden, Piccadilly Circus, Chelsea and Kensington. And, with Londons stellar public transportation system, everything is within easy reach of this gay mecca. Manchester also has much to offer to the gay and lesbian traveler, including a lively gay scene with a variety of bars, clubs and pubs to choose from, as well as a quaint gay village encompassing the blocks around Canal Street.

If you prefer a gay holiday by the sea, Brighton " which is also known as Soho by the Sea - has the second largest lesbian and gay community in England, including the popular Kempton neighborhood, which is home to gay bars, clubs, restaurants and bed and breakfasts. Walk along the pier or pebble beach, or explore quaint shops and boutiques located throughout Brighton for a relaxing gay vacation. Another gay-friendly city that welcomes gay men and lesbians on gay vacations is Newcastle Gateshead, which is home to a sophisticated, trendy gay village with a lively gay scene including cafs, pubs, bars and clubs.

Lesbians and gay men will have no trouble finding gay-friendly accommodations throughout England, including options that cater exclusively to the gay travel community or solely to gay men. By working with a travel agency that regularly organizes gay vacations to England, you can be assured that your travel agent will be able to find the gay-friendly bed and breakfast, hotel or other accommodations that will best suit your needs. If your ideal gay vacation in England includes spending a few nights under the stars, there are even gay-friendly and gay-owned campsites in England, including the gay-owned Out in the Open campsite in Cornwall and Brighthouse Farm, located in Suffolk, which offers a six-acre campground, self-catering lodgings and a farmhouse bed and breakfast.
