Discover sunshine breaks with summer-like temperatures, fewer crowds and no single supplements

Autumn and winter don’t have to mean giving up on those warm, sunny days we all enjoy. The shoulder season can be one of the cheapest times of year to travel, with fewer crowds and better-value flights and hotels as the peak holiday rush dies down. We’ve searched through our holiday providers for destinations where temperatures can still feel much like a UK summer, rather than simply being a little warmer than home, and focused on holidays where solo travellers can avoid a single supplement. So, if you fancy some sunshine, lighter prices and a change of scenery without travelling halfway around the world, here are some options worth exploring.

(As always, we only include holidays from those companies we’ve come across who genuinely offer holidays with absolutely NO single supplements. If you’ve come across any not listed on just4one please reach out and let us know)
