San Sebastian was incredible.

 

Bit of a foodie holiday, so not sure what it would be like if you're not fussed about that sort of thing, but the atmosphere of eating/drinking on the streets in the evening is just amazing. 

 

One of the rare places where both old and new town are nice as well, and the beach goes on for absolute days! 

I love San Sebastián and the Basque Country.

 

Food, beach and people are fantastic. La concha rivals Copacabana in my opinion.

What’s everyone’s best place they’ve been to in England?

Me and my dad always made a yearly visit up Kinder Scout in the Peak District during the winter. Haven't been for a while due to ill health but when it's snowed up there it's absolutely stunning. Kinder Downfall (a waterfall where the wind is so strong it blows it back up stream) is frozen, and the peat bogs that are normally 5 metres deep and covered in snow, so you can quite easily disappear into them without realising.

I liked Bangkok ……. 

[SystonFox]

Bratislava. Had an incredible lads weekend there a few years back. Unbelievable memories

[Carl the Llama]

Dubrovnik's pretty sexy.  Sun, sea, and lots of rocky beaches with no pissing sand to be seen.

Did you go to calypso?

As other have mentioned, New York and Paris are both places where it feels like a movie set. Every view, streetscene, every bar, diner or cafe just feels as if you are an actor in a film. 

 

As for a pleasant surprise, I'd name Slovenia. Lake bohinj and rafting on the sava river. Probably the coolest thing I've ever done in such stunning scenery

Well you’ve certainly sold it to me as a place to visit!

Istanbul was pretty amazing.

The sounds, colours, smells and all of the history behind the grand mosques  is amazing.

Grand bazaars was just awesomely overwhelming.

Athens flea market is a memorable place. The first time I tried bartering. Quite good fun actually. I bought a "Rolex" for about £10.

A few weeks later the hands dropped off.

Sounion Bay in Greece. Natural bay overlooked by the Temple of Poseidon. Sandy beach. Crystal clear waters. Couple of nice little taverna’s. Couldn’t really ask for more. 
 

I’ve been to far more exotic places, but Sounion Bay is the one place I could sit and dream forever.

I felt that in Paris when this girl ran up to me and my school mates, asked us if we speaked English, gave us a weird note, only to then run off again as some man followed her.

 

I didn’t know if we were in a secret movie scene or Paris is just full of weirdos.

I'll be sure to check it out. Not going to lie though, the Piers Morgan thing definitely isn't a feeling point though  Just another 20 days until I'm allowed out of my quarantine hotel

That looks stunning. I've been to Arizona but didn't go there, wish I had now.

 

Hired a boat for the day on Lake Powell, that was pretty epic.

Very hard to choose, but would have to go with Santorini, the whole island is amazing but particularly Oia. It would near impossible to be stressed out there, and everywhere you look would make a great postcard
