The absolute best things about autumn
You probably noticed, but autumn is here. Even if you’re a dyed-in-the-wool summer-lover, you can't deny that some things are just better at this time of year. For example...
Bracing coastal walks
Nothing beats a brisk walk on a coastal path – salty air, wind in your hair and the sound of waves crashing in the background. And if you can follow it up by diving into a cosy seaside pub for lunch, then so much the better.

Discounted holidays
The crowds of summer are a distant memory, and while temperatures remain reliably high in plenty of short-haul holiday destinations, prices do not. This is a great time of year to bag a bargain.

The countdown to Christmas
Love it or hate it, Christmas is coming and it’ll be here sooner than you think. For those of us that love it, autumn is a time to start thinking about taking in a Christmas-market break.

City breaks
Even the best cities can be a little oppressive at the height of summer, but those same places truly come into their own in the autumn months. Discounted travel, thinning crowds and falling temperatures make autumn the perfect time for a city break.

Walking through crunchy leaves
Kaleidoscopic colours, leaves crunching underfoot, perhaps a touch of frost – country walks are a magical thing in autumn. Why not book a UK break somewhere you’ve never been before, pack your walking boots and get out in the autumn colours?

Cosy nights in & crackling fires
When you’ve spent a day kicking through leaves and rambling across fields, isn’t there just something magical about a cosy night in? Bonus points if you can find a crackling fire to curl up next to.

Comfort food
Of course, you can eat sausage and mash, pies and roast dinners any time of year you like. But everyone knows this stuff tastes better when the temperature starts to fall.
