Bank Holiday Hack - The 'Greekender'

This weekend one of our team cheated the British Bank Holiday weather, by escaping to Skiathos for 3 nights, enjoying 31 degrees sunshine, amazing food and no rain! Best of all the cost was similar to what a stay in the UK would have been.

Flights to Greece can be as short as 3 hours, which can be less than you sit in a jam on the motorway for in the UK!

So this week we'll be sharing some brilliant Bank Holiday offers, taking advantage of the long weekends & grabbing some decent weather, and amazing food!

Watch this space for our Sunny Spain Weekends or Greekenders!
