For over 20 years, the Britain Express family have toured England, Scotland, and Wales, visiting historic sites, taking thousands of photographs, and sharing our passion for Britain with the world. We love exploring the UK, and hope that whether you're a Brit or a tourist, you'll take every chance to discover British history and landscape for yourself, and enjoy the wonderful heritage that awaits in every corner of this wonderful country. Get inspired - Explore Britain's Heritage!
Most of our family travelling is done via stays in self catering cottages, where we can unwind and tour one area in-depth for a week or even 2 at a time.

British Biography
Our look at the lives of famous people in art, architecture, science, and literature.
Brodick, Strathclyde, Scotland
Goatfell (or 'Goat Fell' depending on your spelling preferences) is the highest peak on Arran, at 874 metres (2,866 feet). If you're a keen mountaineer that means it is almost a 'Munro' (peak over 3000 feet), but not quite! Paths lead to the summit of Goatfell from Brodick Castle and country park, and from the spectacular Glen Rosa. The fell and surrounding countryside are managed by the National Trust for Scotland.
