I visited the UK’s cheapest county for a staycation – here are the best free attractions and bargain hotels

GIVEN that we’re the most landlocked county in the UK, it came as little surprise to me that Leicestershire has been named the cheapest county for a staycay.

But it’s not just being miles away from the coast that keeps costs low, with a night in a hotel costing just £80 on average, compared to more than three times that in London.
