Volcanic ash cloud concerns? Good reasons for a UK holiday

Online, April 23, 2010 (Newswire.com) - UK holidaymakers watching the news over the last week or so could be forgiven for thinking that they'll holiday at home this year.

And with huge flight disruptions, concerns that the recent volcanic eruption in Iceland could continue for months or even trigger the much larger Katla volcano (as has happened with the last three eruptions at Eyjafjallajokull), who can blame them?

And why not holiday in the UK? You won't have the hassle of airports, or the expense or uncertainty of flying, and Positive Weather Solutions (PWS) - who correctly forecast that last summer would be a washout and have "out-forecast" the Met Office for the past two years - are saying that this Summer is set to be hottest for decades. In fact, they're saying that average temperatures in June, July and August will be hotter than in 1976 when Summer temperatures exceeded 32°C for 15 consecutive days.

Perhaps the sunny weather will give you the perfect opportunity to discover some of the beautiful places the UK has to offer and where better to experience this than with Kendal Cottages ( http://www.kendalcottages.com ), a family-run business which has recently opened a luxury riverside apartment in an idyllic location between two National Parks - the Lake District and the Yorkshire Dales.
