Places from books you wish you could visit

I always wanted to visit the Tiernsee from the Chalet School books. Preferably in the 1930s. But I thought it didn't exist in RL.
Now dd2 insists it does exist with another name, and we could visit it, so we might go this summer.

The Corfu described in 'My family and other Animals'
Seems magical

Would it be appropriate for me to boast mention here that I canoed to Wild Cat Island at half term? The secret harbour is absolutely brilliant in rl and there was already a boat in it flying a swallow flag

Reading The Miniaturist recently made me want to go to Amsterdam again - I haven't been there for decades. Lulworth Cove because Antonia Forest "used" it as Yetland Cove in her Marlows novels.

Pern

Finmory from Jinny and Shantih. I know it's based on Talisker in Skye, and as I am in NE Scotland, it's not that far away.

Malory Towers.

Ravenstow from Elizabeth Chadwick's trilogy.

Hallstatt in modern day Austria, but it serves as Epona's mountain village home in Morgan Llewellyn's "The Horse Goddess"

Westeros, Braavos and The Wall
Discworld
Northern Lights
China of Wild Swans
The Moors of Wuthering Heights

Little House on the Prairie

Mallory Towers

Sweet Valley High (shameful I know)

Any one of the Famous Five Adventures

Castle Leoch and the standing stones at Craig nu Duun. From the book 'Cross Stitch' by Diana Gabaldon, set in the Scottish Highlands.

Both fictional, but there are real-life alternatives. :)

Rivendell and the Shire

I've been to 221b Baker Street and the Hundred Acre Wood.
I want to go to Mythologia

Dauntless Headquarters

Lots of these, plus:

Gruhuken (Dark Matter) - but not for long and most definitely not alone!

The Mars habitat built by the protagonist of a not very well known book called The Martian by Andy Weir

I'd also quite like to visit Divergent headquarters...

LauraChant - there were definitely topiary animals. Have a look here:
www.greenknowe.co.uk

It's a magical place!

My youngest DD is desperate to go to Wisconsin and other Laura Ingalls Wilder sites (I'd happily go too).
I'd love to visit PEI.
I also want to go to Botswana.
I've done the Chalet school Tyrol, but it would have been nice if it had been on the scale described in the books (she shrunk the lake).
I'd quite like to visit Famous Five type places, with a smugglers tunnel under the sea. In fact a lot of low brow children's books have great locations with castles and secret tunnels.
Faraway Tree, Narnia, Discworld, Russia before the Revolution, St Mary Mead would all be fun.

SecretSpi My son would love that (as would I). Are there topiary animals in the garden and St Christopher?

Following on from the Mary Plain thread, I would love to s'visit the bear pits in Berne

Hundred Acre wood.
Seems a nice carefree place.

To Pollyanna and LauraChant - Green Knowe is based on Hemingford Grey near Huntingdon. I visited there a few years ago when I was reading the books to my son and it was magical! He even got to sit on Tolly's rocking horse. I think you need to call them first to make an appointment, but it was well worth it, and to hear all the stories about Lucy Boston's life. She was quite a character.

I would like to accompany Patrick Leigh Fermor on his trek across Europe in the early 1930s, as described in "A Time of Gifts" etc.

A lot of my travel choices are governed by either places I've read about in books (art galleries also tend to feature in the decision-making process.) I think there are worse ways of choosing travel destinations.

I have been to Kynance Cove because of Rosemary Manning's Green Dragon books.

I went to Amsterdam partly because of Anne Frank's House (also the Rijksmuseum and Keukenhof.)

I went to the Snowy Mountains in Australia because of Elyne Mitchell's Silver Brumby books. I didn't see a silver brumby, but I did see wild brumbies of other colours.

And I grew up in the heart of Hardy Country, so that doesn't really count.

I once insisted we went to the Chartists' Cave in south Wales, after reading Alexander Cordell. It was a very foggy day.

Another family outing was to Rye, because of EF Benson.

Places I haven't been, but want to:
PEI, like several others - I've been as far as getting tourist brochures for there.

Also some of the Laura Ingalls Wilder sites, particularly Rocky Ridge Farm (which aren't actually in the books.)

And Bremen, because I want to see the statue of the musicians of Bremen.

I'd quite like to visit Ankh Morpork, too.

Rivendell, though the elves would really piss me off after a while.
Hogwarts.
Diagon Alley.
The Burrow
The Shire
Granny Weatherwax's cottage

It's the Kalahari, isn't it? Oops.

Ankh-Morpork. It's the only place I could be bothered to do a city break to these days.

Botswana. I want to drink redbush tea with gentle people and feel the Sahara break my heart...

Cannes as it is in F Scott Fitzgerald's Tender is the Night. I want to sit on the pray mat beach with the characters and watch them.

Westeros. I want to see the Wall.

The Orient Express as Agatha Christie wrote it. And any of her more exotic locations actually. And the Italy that Tom Ripley went to.

I want to climb Stephen King's Dark Tower, and pretty much take Roland's whole journey towards it. His Mid-world, his End-world, his territories.

Finland, as Tove Jansson writes about it. I want to go to her Summer Island and see the world in her Winter Book.

The New York that Lenore Doolan lives in.

The college that Jerusha Abbott attends.

Brazzaville Beach when Hope Clearwater lived on it.

Phillip Pullman's Northern Lights world. I want a Daemon.

Probably a hundred other places as well if I think about it.
