    Santander Zero and Halifax Clarity (or Clarity Reward) are probably your best option if you intend to fully clear the balance on return from holiday.

    Metrobank may be an alternative.

    If you expect the balance to run for some time, get a longer 0% on purchases deal (and don't use it for cash).

    Post Office CC is also loading free, though the online system is awful. A fee applies on cash unlike Clarity/Zero. For cash withdrawals, interest applies from the date of withdrawal on all three.
