The stunning homes dotted around the UK offer tempting glimpses of  destinations that Brits may choose to visit in lieu of a foreign getaway following new quarantine rules on travellers to Britain.

Last night, Boris Johnson announced all people arriving in the UK must be quarantined for two weeks to help stop a second coronavirus wave.

Airline and tourism bosses fear the two-week quarantine move could kill off any lingering hopes of British holidaymakers heading abroad this summer.

Holidaymakers and travellers arriving into the country - including Brits - at ports and airports will be forced to self-isolate for a fortnight, or risk a £1,000 fine or deportation.

HOLIDAYMAKERS FACE QUARANTINE

It means Brits may have to take four weeks off to take a two-week holiday abroad, leaving most people facing summer in the UK during the Covid-19 pandemic.

A study by The National Caravan Council (NCC) showed 64% of people are likely to take trips in the UK next year, compared to just 38 per cent before the coronavirus outbreak.
