Crete and Corfu among 11 most economical destinations for family holidays

Bulgaria cheapest

Newsroom July 21 08:29

Crete and Corfu are among the 11 most affordable destinations in Europe for a British family beach holiday, according to this year’s Family Holiday Report from Post Office Travel Money.
The cost for a British family holiday in Corfu is estimated that amounts at £145.44 and in Crete at £128.64.
The report reveals that prices in European resorts are higher than a year ago as a result of the weaker pound. However, the longer term trend is that the costs for meals, drinks and kids’ beach items are now lower in many family favourites than they were in the years 2011-2014. It is only when prices are compared with 2015, when the pound was at a seven-year high, that UK holidaymakers lose out.
Holidaymakers can purchase Euros over the counter at more than 10,000 Post Office branches. Up to 80 currencies, from Australian Dollars to Vietnamese Dong, can be ordered online before 3pm on a working day to get free next working day delivery to your home or one of 11,500 Post Office branches across the UK. We’ll buy back any currency that you don’t use
