1. Travel time is reduced
Driving to the airport, delays and flights can take up to a day either end of your holiday and the journey can leave you jaded by jet lag. A UK holiday, on the other hand, could be less than two hours away from your home and you won’t need to waste valuable holiday time adjusting to a different time zone.
2. No passport required
With 500,000 passports awaiting processing, now is not the time to be putting in a last minute passport application. Even if you fly to your UK destination, valid photographic ID such as a driving license is accepted by most airlines.

3. No currency issues
Currency conversions and withdrawing money abroad can leave you out of pocket, no risk of this on a UK break.

4. UK holidays are less stressful
With no flight deadlines to meet, you can travel to your destination at your own pace, even stopping to enjoy the scenery en route. No fighting over the armrest, cramped legs or tiny toilets to contend with.

5. You can holiday cheaply as a group
Holidays abroad increase in price as more people are added to the booking. Invite more friends on your UK trip and you’ll save money, splitting fuel and accommodation costs.

6. UK summer temperatures rival foreign destinations
Approaching this weekend, highs of 24 degrees Celsius are predicted in parts of
the UK, that’s more than Tenerife, and comparable, in fact, to Sao Paulo,
Brazil for the same period!
7. The UK is home to the most beautiful beach in Europe
Harbour Beach in Wales beat competition in Portugal, Croatia and Italy to be named Europe’s most beautiful beach. From breathtaking mountains in Scotland to the crystal clear waters and golden beaches of the South West, the UK has much to offer domestic tourists.

8. You can bring the family pet
Holidaycottages.co.uk have over 1,100 dog-friendly cottages across the UK, so there’s no need to ask relatives for help, book pricey stays in kennels or endure the pet passport application process.

9. No baggage limits
No need to worry about each extra kilogram and risking obscene charges if a couple of souvenirs bring you over the limit on the return flight. On a UK break you can pack everything but the kitchen sink, and even that if you like! This is of particular benefit for families with babies and young children.

10. Drive on the left
Driving abroad can be stressful itself; different laws, opposite side of the road and some dubious driving from other drivers, not to mention the cost of car hire and excess charges. Take your own car on a UK holiday, share the driving and don’t worry about that little scratch that’s appeared on the door.
