Cheapest holiday hotspot for bargain-loving Brits with beer at just £1.66 a pint

Holidaymakers heading overseas in the coming week will face added pressure on their finances as the pound slips against most major currencies. Sterling's value against the euro and the dollar has stabilised but recent losses have affected the spending power of Brits abroad.

However, there is still one destination where UK visitors can get great value-for-money - with a pint of local beer the equivalent of just £1.99. According to a study by exchange expert Saxo, the Turkish lira now worth more than double against the pound compared to this time last year.

Meanwhile, petrol in Turkey sells at an average of 94p per litre - less than half the price of the UK. Turkey has long been one of the most affordable holiday destinations for families, with the Post Office's latest Holiday Money Index also ranking it as the best value location.
