Don’t be surprised if you spot the odd A-lister around one of Britain’s most beautiful counties. Chef Gordon Ramsay has owned various holiday homes here, and you might also see stars like singer Peter Andre, Loose Women presenter Nadia Sawalha or Strictly dancer AJ Pritchard on what’s known as the Cornish Riviera.

STAY: Former Corrie actor Helen Flanagan recently stayed at the four star St Michael’s Resort in Falmouth. Stay for three nights for the price of two in March, including breakfast, from £240pp, stmichaels resort.com.

North Wales

Lush, green and rugged, this region’s natural beauty has appealed to holidaymakers for centuries, but it also hosted the UK-based I’m a Celebrity at Gwrych Castle near Abergele in Conwy. As a result, locals will have spotted stars such as Ant and Dec, Vernon Kay and David Ginola. But other celebs like it here, too, including Wayne and Coleen Rooney, who’ve taken their family to the beach resort of Abersoch, and The Walking Dead star Andrew Lincoln, who’s been spotted surfing in Snowdonia.

STAY: Experience a bit more luxury than the I’m a Celeb stars with a spa break at The Kinmel in Abergele, including B&B, lunch, dinner and spa treatment, from £195pp, thekinmel.co.uk.
