Where to go between January and April? 

Start the year by holidaying in January, with French Alps ski holidays being a good choice for some fun in the snow. Thanks to Valentine's Day and the school half-term, February is ideal for visiting romantic cities like Paris or family-friendly places like Malaga. St Patrick's Day means Ireland is a must in March. With the arrival of spring, beach destinations like Bora Bora are popular in April. 

Where to go between May and August? 

If you are pondering where to go in May, consider eclectic cities like Madrid or LA for a late spring getaway. As summer arrives, Nice and Palma de Mallorca, are some of the best places to enjoy the sunshine in June. In July, treat your kids to a sunny family holiday in Faro. If you want to fly away in August, Croatia makes for an exciting late summer escape. 

Where to go between September and December? 

Warm weather and fewer crowds mean Bali is a popular September holiday destination. For a sunny October getaway, bustling Dubai boasts warm temperatures and world-class hotels. As the winter arrives in November, celebrate the colourful Day of the Dead in Mexico. With Father Christmas preparing his sleigh, explore the festive markets in Germany for a cosy December holiday
