3 nights island-hopping Italy’s Lake Maggiore for £338pp.

This trip is more flexible than Merlin, your vinyasa yoga instructor. Go in August if July feels too soon, or up the nights to 4 or 7. You can fly from London, Manchester, Birmingham, or Newcastle too.

You do you.

Stresa, eh?

“Ironic… I’ve never felt less stressed!”

You to your Italian waiter as you sip Aperol in the pool overlooking the lake.

Stresa is a fairytale come to life. With three piazzas and traffic-free, cobbled streets - it’s one of Italy’s more manageable lakes. Ideal for a 3 night R&R stay. Browse chic shops, caffeinate in independent coffee shops, and drool over Lake Maggiore… When you aren’t island-hopping and eating All. Dat. Pasta.

Where will I sleep?

Hotel Grand Bristol is an elegant mansion straight out of a classic Fellini film with the Red Queen’s garden from Alice in Wonderland stuck on the back. Dreamy.

You’re literally across the road from the lake. There are shaded pergolas, a deckchair-lined pool with waterfalls and whirlpools, and leafy dining rooms that spill out into the Italian sun.

Psst! Breakfast in included.

What will I do?

Head to the waterfront and get the ferry over to Isola Bella - a dinky island with a HUGE palace, manicured gardens, and insane eats.

Glug cold white wine whilst getting an eyeful of lake at Il Fornello Bottega con Cucina. Get the spaghetti spiked with salty guanciale and tossed in rich tomatoey ragu. It’ll make you a believer.

Leapfrog to Borromeo and Isola Madre for more Disney IRL vibes on islands flung out into the sea.
