Some of the real highlights of a LEJOG I did last year were the SW and into Wales. Something like Taunton - Somerset Levels - Cheddar Gorge - Mendips - Bristol - Wye Valley - Monmouth - Abergavenny - Black Mountains (Hay Bluff) - Brecons - is just perfect, the scenery varies so much, as do the villages/towns/cities you come through. I loved it.
You've hit the nail on the head here -I also usually feel I should go far away when there are some amazing places close to home. It's like I feel I need to get value for money on my passport! I've been to the other side of the world but I've never been to Wales (other than to Holyhead).
