Sun-kissed escapes, designed for the colder months

Tailor-made holidays & beach escapes

Content

Discover the perfect autumn or winter getaway, featuring everything from sunshine holidays to Europe and Asia to epic safaris and fascinating city stays without the crowds. Whether you're set on escaping to the coast in search of sun or looking for something a little more adventurous, we have plenty of offers and ideas to make the most of the rest of the year, whether during the autumn or winter.

Autumn holidays

Autumn presents the perfect chance for a wide range of holiday experiences. As the weather starts to turn in the UK, this is arguably prime time to get away for a final blast of sunshine not too far from home. Not only have the crowds thinned in Europe's cities and beach resorts, but scorching summer temperatures have receded, making walking, hiking or exploring rural areas wonderful at this time of year. Best of all, many hotels have reduced their rates now that the summer hordes have headed home.

Southern Europe supplies perfect weather in the shape of the Greek Islands, Spain, Italy, Portugal and beyond. Further afield, driving holidays in the likes of New England in the USA offer sweeping views of undulating hills host to the rich browns and deep reds of Fall, which have become the state's signature. You'll also find sunshine and adventure in plentiful supply in North Africa in the autumn months, while in the Southern Hemisphere, destinations including Chile and Namibia offer supreme nature and adventure in abundance.

Winter holidays

Come winter, while everyone at home is enduring dark evenings and woolly jumpers, you'll have a choice of anything from relaxing beach getaways to world-class wildlife spotting in such far-flung gems as Costa Rica and South Africa.

If you're looking for close-to-home beach relaxation and the chance to sip cocktails by the pool this winter, we recommend jetting off to the Canary Islands. Or, if you want some serious winter sun, then you could head further afield to the likes of India, Oman or Mauritius for some tropical island bliss.

And, if you're looking for something a bit more adventurous, we have that covered too. You could encounter exotic wildlife on a Kenyan safari, or sample world-class wines and explore epic wilderness and glorious coastlines in far-flung New Zealand or Australia. For those looking for colder escapes, there are plenty of choices in the polar regions, from Northern Lights city breaks in Luleå, to trips to the iconic ICEHOTEL.

Below, you'll find a selection of our top autumn and winter escapes, we're sure there's plenty that'll have you inspired.
