Do you want to stay in the UK?

Maybe you could go hiking and camping in Dartmoor. I've always wanted to, but never found the right time... That place seems amazing.

Go to the Ardennes in Belgium. Since it is almost our backgarden, we go there often as a last minute decision. It is a large area and there are really a lot of outdoor activities. There are really a lot of kayaking being offered around the different rivers. Good starting points for exploring are Dinant, La Roche-en-ardenne, or Yvoir.

A disadvantage might be that most website advertising activities are only in French and Dutch. (See: example). You need websites for a first impression, but once you have found your way to the Ardennes, you know that the nice thing about the Ardennes is that you can just go unprepared. Google translate might be your friend for first impressions.

Getting to the Ardennes from the UK is easy. You can take the car ferry from Dover to Dunkerque/Calais, Ramsgate to Oostende, or Harwich - Hoek van Holland or take the shuttle between felixstowe and Calais.

You could also fly into Brussels/Antwerp and rent a car at the airport. A car is a necessity to visit the Ardennes.
