Londonderry
Northern Ireland
Why we can't wait to visit again: Belfast? Too obvious. We're heading for Northern Ireland's second city - specifically for its modern-trad restaurants which serve trussed up bounty from the neighbouring countryside and meaty fish plucked straight from the Irish Sea.
Where we're staying: Bishop's Gate Hotel
Before you go: Watch Derry Girls. It's a coming-of-age sitcom which follows a handful of young women as they navigate the final years of The Troubles. If you haven't ploughed through both seasons on Netflix yet (how?), add it to your watchlist.
