With 2026 just around the corner, it's time to use this handy tool to double your annual leave next year so you can squeeze in as many getaways as possible. Whether you're heading to bucket list destinations like Sri Lanka or Japan, or you prefer the ease of a quick trip to the Greek islands, it's likely that you have your sights set on some sunny, snowy or spectacular destinations.
But before you start searching for the best flight price hacks, how interested would you be in taking multiple staycations next year? And getting paid for it? One company is currently looking for an enthusiastic traveller to stay at a number of their cottages across the UK - and they're paying £30k. Holidaycottages.co.uk is on the lookout for a 'Joy Seeker' - an individual who will visit some of the happiest destinations in the UK and create content around their trips. The chosen person will front their Happy Place campaign and spend next year visiting the likes of Cornwall, Pembrokeshire and North Yorkshire while staying at their chosen properties.
