Top 10 UK City Breaks

Autumn is a popular time of year for city breaks and Britain is blessed with so many cities that are well worth a few days exploring. Our list of the Pocket Britain Top 10 City Breaks will hopefully not only help you decide where to go, but also become your personal tour guide when you visit.
With all that has taken place in and around London this summer, it is no surprise that it tops our list. But we also include some lesser known cities such as Norwich, Chester and Canterbury. For those that fancy an "overseas" trip, Belfast has much to offer including the latter end of it's Titanic centenary celebrations. Finally, the good old favourites of Bath, Cambridge, Edinburgh, Oxford and York, will still prove very popular.
