5 great European escapes
Staycation? If it’s not good enough for David Cameron, it’s not good enough for you. Here are five great ideas for European escapes.
1. Ibiza from £88
Ibiza in September means closing parties. After a long, hard season in the sun, it’s time for the White Isle to finally let its hair down in style as famous superclubs like throw their last hurrahs. The sun will still be high in the sky, so you can recover from your dancefloor exertions on the playa. Find cheap flights to Ibiza in September
2. Barcelona from £60
He wants a city break; she wants a beach holiday. What to do? Go to Barcelona! The Catalan capital ticks both boxes, with sightseeing and shopping aplenty (think brownie points, lads!) and also an impressive beach at Barceloneta, within a sunny stroll of the city centre.

3. Budapest from £52
If you’re on a tight budget then Budapest is on the money thanks to a captivating combo of cheap flights and accommodation and a favourable exchange rate.

4. Paris from £45
When isn’t a good time to go to Paris? The Parisians famously flee the French capital in August, leaving its world-famous sights to the tourists. Or wait until later in the year when the queues for Notre Dame, Eiffel Tower et al have shortened, while the weather is still warm enough to laze in the Jardin du Luxembourg with a baguette and a bottle of rosé.
