Sardinia

So far as island getaways go they don't come much better than this.

Italy's second largest island is as romantic as they come with golden sands, gorgeous landscapes, amazing food and charming villages. Take a trip to the UNESCO World Heritage listed Orgosolo, known as 'village of murals', or visit Castelsardo - a remarkable hilltop village you'll need to see to believe.

Add to that you've got a range of awesome trails for hiking and biking across the island - perfect if your holidays are for exploring the outdoors and clocking up the miles in stunning surroundings.

For something special check out Costa Smeralda, 10 kilometres of picture-perfect coastline loaded with lush resorts and with access to an array of bars, restaurants and sidewalk cafes serving up the best in Mediterranean and Italian cuisine.
