Where can we go that’s warm before Britain exits the EU?

Q We would love to pack in a final short visit to Europe before the expected Brexit deadline: ideally somewhere with mild temperatures, and little risk of rain, and bagfuls of culture. Not Madrid which we love but have explored extensively. Where would you recommend going in March?

A I have just returned from a November visit to Malaga and enjoyed it so much that I have vowed to return soon. It is 250 miles further south than Madrid, and enjoys a far better climate in early spring. Air routes from the UK are plentiful, and competition ferocious: flying from Luton on Ryanair on Thursday 14 March, coming back the following Monday, currently costs £31 return; if you prefer Gatwick and British Airways (which has an extremely generous cabin baggage allowance), you’re looking at £70. And reaching the city from the airport is a piece of paella: the train takes 10 minutes and costs €1.80.
