The United Kingdom's four distinct seasons each hold a unique appeal. However, since the UK spans ten degrees of latitude, there are considerable differences from north to south and—due to ocean influences—also between east and west. The region frequently defies its negative stereotypes, so don't let the English's complaints and the Scots' talk about "dreich" (dreary) weather put you off. Read on to find out more about the best time to visit England, Scotland, Wales, and Northern Ireland.
