    Yes, but do you want a beach holiday, city break, activity holiday or what?

    and some idea of your budget and what time of year you wish to travel would also be helpful.
  • How about a campsite/mobile home in the South of France? Get a cheap flight and rent a car. Usually quite a good social scene on the campsites, but you can also go explore beaches etc. If you save clubcard points you can use them towards Siblu and you still get all the deals (recommend a friend and special offers etc)
