Cornish charm
The Roseland peninsula on Cornwall's southern shore offers quiet coves and craggy cliffs to explore. Here, in the tiny fishing village of Portloe, you'll find the Lugger Hotel, which currently has a winter offer of two nights with breakfast, a champagne cream tea and one dinner for £138 per person. The deal is valid for stays until the end of March (though with the exception of the half-term week, 10-19 February), but you'll have to book by this Friday to take advantage. Luggerhotel.co.uk
Snow sure
Inghams has added the Italian resort of Bormio to its roster for this ski season. Situated within Stelvio National Park, the cobbled medieval village offers bars, restaurants and hot springs, with intermediate and more challenging pistes in the Alpine reaches above. A week at the Girasole Villareggio 2000 hotel with half-board costs £399 per person, including transfers and Thomas Cook Airlines flights from Gatwick to Verona on 7 January 2012. Inghams.co.uk
