There are often just a few facets for people to consider when heading on holiday. How much are flights? Is it hot? Are the pints cheap?
For any Brits contemplating a trip abroad this summer, there seems to be an almost Utopian destination available just a couple of hours away.
Now, there are plenty of places across the world where locals are seemingly sick of the sight of us pasty Brits showing up and stealing their sunlight, and it's probably for good reason, given the way some of you behave after a few too many Madri beers.

It's not just the possibility of annoying the locals that Brits need to be wary of when heading on holiday, as there's also constantly changing passport rules, and warnings about the correct colour of our suitcase, but that shouldn't stop you from booking a little trip every now and then.
Martin Lewis has also come out with a whole host of tips on how to save money on your travels but considering the total price of this trip, you might not need to worry.
For those of you who fancy a flight for the price of two pints in London, you can now fly to a popular spot in Spain for just £20 with Ryanair.
Of course, you'll have to make sure you turn up on time and have the correct weight suitcase if you want to save yourself a hefty fine that's often more costly than the holiday itself, but at the end of the day, you can't really beat their prices.

You can now book a flight to Murcia, a city in the south of Spain, where temperatures are rarely below 20°C. In fact, according to world weather online, during the summer months, particularly July and August, temperatures average between 30°C to 35°C, with occasional peaks exceeding 40°C. Might be too hot.
On top of all this, you can find a pint in the town for just €2 (£1.74), which may well be enough to keep you entertained for the entirety of your stay.
However, if you are seeking a little more from your holiday, then you can explore the local cathedrals and beautiful architecture on offer there. There are also local plazas, markets, and even a water park, which frankly is everything you need.
And for those of you wondering, the beach is less than an hour away by car, with Alicante and Benidorm slightly further up the coast, if you're in the mood to spend all your time with tourists and not locals.
