                          Family stays in Blackpool are easy and affordable with the Grand Hotel Blackpool.

So you’re granted quick (20 minutes’ walk, to be precise) access to North Pier, Blackpool Tower and the famous Blackpool Illuminations.

                          There are room options for all sorts of travellers. You can book sea-view rooms, a suite with a separate living area, or family rooms. The latter comes with either sofa beds or bunk beds for the kids. Talking of kids, they’ve got their own menu in the restaurant, which lines up views out over the promenade. It deals in breakfast and dinner, but you can grab a snack in between from the Lounge Bar. Or a nightcap or two – depending on how you roll.

                          When you’re not out sightseeing, there’s a health club with a 24-hour gym and a spa. At the spa, you can relax in a heated indoor pool, sauna or steam room. For business trips, there’s a whole centre with 11 meeting rooms and free Wi-Fi.

                                          Secure a last minute summer getaway today

                                          Summer is prime time for ditching the daily grind and swapping your morning commute for a decent lie-in. We all know that sudden panic when July hits and your calendar is looking totally empty. But don't stress, booking last-minute is basically our superpower.

                                          You don't need to plan months in advance to find the best summer holiday destinations. We’re the place to book last-minute hotel deals, giving you the biggest range of accommodation to book last-minute at the best price. So grab your sun cream (or your umbrella, let's be real about the British weather) and let's get you sorted.

                                          UK summer holiday breaks

                                          Staying on home turf has its perks. No passport panics, no liquid limits at security, and you can pack as many pairs of shoes as your car boot allows. If you're after a classic seaside escape, just head down to Devon. Expect proper ice cream, top-tier pasties, and coastal views that don't even need an Instagram filter.

                                          Prefer pavement to sand? Summer city breaks are where it’s at. Hit up London for rooftop bars, massive parks, and West End shows. Or jump on a train to Manchester for gig venues and a food scene that easily rivals the capital. But if you want to swap the noise for some actual fresh air, the Lake District is calling your name. Pack your walking boots and tackle a fell or two.

                                          How to fill your out-of-office days

                                          A summer trip is whatever you want to make of it. Spend your days doing absolutely nothing on a sun lounger, or get your step count up hiking across national parks. If you've got the little ones in tow, tracking down summer holiday activities for kids that don't involve staring at a screen is the real goal. We’ve got loads of hotels near major theme parks to help you out. Book a spot near Alton Towers or Thorpe Park and let them burn off all that energy on the rollercoasters. You might even get a quiet car journey home out of it.

                                          Fancy a summer holiday abroad?

                                          Sometimes you just need to guarantee the sunshine. Heading abroad gives you the ultimate excuse to switch your phone to aeroplane mode and properly clock off. When we talk about top summer holiday destinations, places like Spain and Greece are massive crowd-pleasers for a reason. You get reliable rays, decent pools, and the chance to eat your body weight in local carbs. Spend your mornings exploring old towns, your afternoons asleep in the shade, and your evenings working your way through the local cocktail menu.

                                          Your summer holiday questions answered

                                          What are the best cheap summer holiday destinations in Europe?

                                          You don't need to empty your bank account to get a decent tan. If you're hunting for a bargain, Eastern Europe is a massive win. Places like Sunny Beach in Bulgaria offer ridiculously cheap pints and loads of sunshine. Portugal’s Algarve is also great for budget-friendly apartments and cheap eats, especially if you dodge the super touristy strips. And for a cheap city fix, Krakow or Prague have brilliant food and cheap drinks, even if you are swapping the beach for a town square.


                                          What are the best summer holiday destinations for families?

                                          When you've got kids to keep happy, you want easy flights and short transfers. Majorca is a massive hit because it practically runs on family tourism. The beaches are safe, the flight is short, and there are waterparks everywhere. If you want to stay in the UK, Cornwall is a classic shout. Rock pooling, surfing lessons, and eating chips out of paper on the seafront never gets old.

                                          What are the best summer holiday destinations for couples?

                                          Ditch the kids' clubs and go somewhere a bit more grown-up. The Amalfi Coast in Italy is basically built for romance, with its cliffside restaurants and serious pasta game. If you want something a bit more laid-back, Santorini gives you those massive caldera views and brilliant sunsets. Closer to home, a sneaky weekend away in Bath offers rooftop spa sessions and loads of great pubs to hide away in.

                                          In fact, we conducted a data-led study to find out which European city is the easiest to visit with children. In the study, we found that Copenhagen was the easiest and most enjoyable family city break!

                                          What are some underrated summer holiday destinations?

                                          Skip the usual suspects and head somewhere slightly off the radar. Albania is having a massive moment right now, offering Riviera vibes for a fraction of the price of Greece or Italy. Montenegro is another brilliant shout, with massive mountains meeting super clear water. If you're keeping it UK-bound, Northumberland is criminally overlooked. It's got massive, empty beaches, castles everywhere, and you won't have to fight for a parking space.

                                          When is the best time to book a summer holiday?

                                          Honestly, whenever you want! With LateRooms, you don't have to be that person who maps out their August trip in January. Our whole thing is being the place to book last-minute hotel deals. Waiting until the final few weeks can actually score you some brilliant prices as hotels look to fill up their empty rooms. Keep your dates a bit flexible, check out our latest offers, and you'll easily bag a bargain!
