City Breaks

Looking for the perfect getaway for the bank holiday break? Look no further: here's our round-up of the best places to escape to this month.

Reykjavik, Iceland

In just two hours you can fly to Iceland's capital, surrounded on all sides by mountains and the Atlantic Ocean. There's no need to compromise on anything; Reykjavik has it all in spades. Visit the geothermal pools, dotted around the city before heading out for a whale watching trip near the beautiful Blue Lagoon in the Thingvellir National Park. Then head back to the city to catch a play at the National Theatre, before sampling the freshest fish and seafood – or if you're feeling adventurous, try a traditional Icelandic meal; smoked lamb and sheep's head take your fancy?
