August Bank Holiday Breaks

As the summer draws to a close and a new school year looms, there's nothing quite like a long weekend away over the August Bank Holiday to soak up the last of the sun, and relax and recharge before a new season kicks in. As the bank holiday coincides with school holidays, it's usually a very popular time to go away, so if you see a break you like, book now! They won't stick around for long.
