Craving winter sun? I know the feeling, which is why I highly recommend jetting off on a break to the mesmerising Spanish resort town of Salou. Located in the Tarragona province along Spain’s brilliant eastern coastline, this is the perfect destination for chilling out on the beach.
Fine food is an essential ingredient for any holiday, but I think that this is particularly true when it comes to winter breaks.

Looking to escape the doom and gloom for a fun-filled, action-packed winter sun holiday? Playa de las Américas should be the top of your list, as this is a brilliant party destination on the Canary Island of Tenerife.

You may have heard that La Plagne is a ‘family’ resort, with skiing only worthy of beginners and intermediates, if so let me set you straight. La Plagne actually has some of the Alps’ fiercest black runs, intense mogul fields and a range of off-piste skiing which could give the hallowed faces of Chamonix a run for their money.
If you’re a skier then there’s no doubt that Chamonix in the French Alps is on your bucket list, but have you ever considered it for a weekend break? Well if you haven’t, then maybe you should because its combination of glorious skiing set around a stylish, cosmopolitan French Alpine town at the foot of Mont Blanc makes it the perfect short break option.
If you’re looking for the kind of winter sun getaway that the Canary Islands are famous for, but you don’t want to face the crowds, then a romantic break to Los Gigantes on the beautiful west coast of Tenerife could be the perfect option for you.
On a ski holiday to Isola 2000 with your teenage children you might just become convinced that the entire resort was created with them in mind.

There is so much to see in Rome – so much history, culture and architecture – that even a year in the city would not give you enough time to see it all.

Just promise yourself that you’ll come back some day to see the rest.
