No-one's mentioned the Yorkshire Dales yet! Surely worth a drive through at least, from the breweries at Masham, through Hawes, down over Fleet Moss and into Wharfedale?
Or the amount of castles in Northumberland, or the coastline there? In fact if you're driving north from Newcastle, you'll be going right up through Northumberland. You could take in some coastline, some castles, the wild cattle at Chillingham...

Thanks again for al the helpfull replies!

Yorkshire Dales is on the list and so are the castles along the coast up from Newcastle. I will look in to the wild cattle thing, my daughter should love to see that.
Haven't really heard from the summe isles, but we will drive to Ullapool i should think so it might be worth a visit. It seems we might skip the south of England alltogether, as we've got so manny things to see up north. If we do go down south we'll most probably end up in Wales.

Does anybody know where we could get a good experience seeing dolphins and suchs? I know about the dolphin centre at the Spey bay, but i'm thinking somewhere around the westcoast should be better?

When you come to Scotland walk to a bothy and stay a night or two. A lot are in stunning locations and you have somewhere to hide from the midge!

Some info here........http://www.mountainbothies.org.uk/bothies.asp

Definitely! And, as you're going round the Scottish coast, go to John O'Groats for the tick and then, frankly, just enjoy the drive. Amazing scenery all round the coast - the West coast especially!

try the dolphin observatory under the bridge at inverness.you can see them in the moray firth.also if you get the boat to the summer isles hyou may see them on the way and possibly basking sharks.
