With so many people choosing to make the most of home this year instead of going abroad for their summer holidays, we wanted to find out what you love about Britain.

We asked the twittersphere to name their favourite things about Britain (if you're not following us on twitter, you can find us at www.twitter.com/nationaltrust), and used your comments to compile a top 25:

1. Rockpools
2. Allotments
3. Rain
4. Bandstands
5. Fish and chips
6. Red phone/post boxes
7. Outdoor theatre
8. Landscapes
9. Cream teas
10. Beaches and coastline
11. Diversity
12. Bunting
13. Strawberries and cream
14. Beer gardens and historic pubs
15. Walks in the country
16. Deckchairs
17. Lawns and gardens
18. Canopied lanes with dappled sunlight
19. B&Bs and campsites
20. British cheeses and sausages
21. Cat and dog owning
22. The seasons and 'real' weather
23. Heritage
24. Barbecues
25. Real ale and cider

Whatever your reasons for loving home, you can make the most of what we have to offer by finding a day out or holiday with the National Trust. See you there!
