While these trips are as much tailored to your specific requirements as our further flung holidays, they represent perfect nugget-sized long weekend trips. The team at Original Travel research hundreds of potential luxury break destinations, but only the very best make the grade in terms of accessibility, originality and value for money.
Those that do appear here might raise an eyebrow or two - can you really spend the weekend sampling sauvignon blancs in South Africa's winelands? Certainly you can, with the benefit of overnight flights and minimal time changes. Or seeing polar bears in the wild? Equally possible with a night in Oslo followed by two or three in Svalbard, the desolate Norwegian island chain deep in the Arctic Circle. These and more pocket adventures are a phone call away.
