The Easter weekend is looming, and whether you want to visit friends and relatives you may not have seen as regularly as you'd like because of the pandemic or want to explore a new area as a tourist, travel companies have unveiled a raft of discounts and deals to tempt last minute bookings.
With Haven offering last minute deals from £149 for a family for three nights and Sykes Holiday Cottages listing last minute breaks nationwide from just £62 a night, if you want an extended trip there are some great options for web savvy shoppers. But if you just fancy a night away to break up the Easter holiday then Travelodge might be the best value option.
