What makes it an easy day out
You won't run out of Saturdays
Every list hands you the same six towns. This one keeps going — coastal, cathedral, castle, moorland — so there’s always one you haven’t done yet.
Match the day to your mood
Some Saturdays want a cathedral and a long lunch. Others want a cliff path and nobody to talk to. Filter by how you want the day to feel.
Arrive already knowing
Getting somewhere new is usually the moment you start googling on your phone. Open a destination first and its best bits are already on a map.
who it's for
For city people who want to see the rest of it
If you live here
You've done London. You want the country, without spending Friday night working out whether it's doable and giving up around ten.
If you're visiting
A handful of days and a long list of must-sees scattered across the country. Start with what actually fits between two nights in London.
FAQ
Good to know
What is this, exactly?
A map of day trips from London, sorted by how far you can genuinely get in the time you have — by train or by car. Not a list of lovely places, but the ones you can reach and be back from in a day.
When does it open?
It is being built now. The map, the travel-time zones and 92 destinations already exist; what is left is the finishing. Leave your address and you will hear the day it opens.
What happens to my email?
One message, when the map opens. It is not a newsletter, it is not passed to anyone else, and you can ask to be taken off the list at any time by replying.
ready when you are
So — how far are you going?
The map opens soon. Leave your address and you will be among the first to use it.
