I've read that the SW part of England (due to its pleasant climate) is
a big vacation (holiday) destination for city folk in England. I
suspect that the locals are not too fond of this fact.
I'm local, and I enjoy the seasonal variation that tourism brings, as
do most locals. It's a mistake to think most are from English cities
as well (they are more likely to go abroad.)
