Let’s be honest: going abroad for holiday can sometimes be a lot more hassle than its worth. Airport terminal queues and a lot of that time spent travelling and worrying about whether you’ve brought the right power adaptor along could be far better spent on the beach with a good book. Bearing that in mind we’ve collated 8 of the best staycation offers to take advantage of this Eid. You won’t even need to bother with passport control.
