Beating the January Blues
With the festive season in full swing and Christmas now tantalisingly close, it won’t be long before we’re throwing out used wrapping paper and eating leftover turkey sandwiches. However, you can avoid the post-Christmas blues by booking an exciting holiday and give yourself something to look forward to going into January and beyond. The winter season might be upon us, but there’ll be no frosty reception waiting for you in any of these fun and friendly destinations.
Zermatt
It may be cold outside but that only means it’s the perfect time to go skiing or snowboarding here in Zermatt. Even if you’ve never been before, you can have beginner’s lessons to ensure you’re not on thin ice or that you get cold feet when it comes to the slopes, whereas there’s more advanced slopes if you’re feeling particularly confident. Zermatt’s landscape is particularly stunning and sure to take your breath away. The mountain peaks, particularly the Breithorn which stands tall at 4,000 metres, offer a tranquil and peaceful backdrop when you’re exploring the area. Zermatt’s natural wonders will certainly lift your spirits after the Christmas season and give you the chance to experience the holiday of a lifetime.
Paris
Is there any better way to put a smile on your face than the Disneyland theme park in Paris? Disneyland truly is one of the most magical attractions in the world, leaving the whole family feverishly excited for weeks on end. The park is open every day throughout January and beyond, with both the Euro Disneyland and Walt Disney Studios Parks available for you to enjoy, as well as all the other entertainment the village offers. Disneyland Paris truly is the perfect antidote to the January blues and will have you excited for the weeks and adventures ahead.
Amsterdam
Although Amsterdam is a great city to visit all year round, if you’re looking for a more relaxing holiday this could be the one for you. On the clearer days you can go for winter walks around the city and see some of its serene canals and parks which are famously beautiful. However, if the weather gets to you too much you can always keep warm in the array of cafés throughout the city and be entertained by its cultural attractions such as its museums. If you’re looking for a quick and cheap weekend break to lighten your mood, Amsterdam is perfect and will ensure you’re soon in high spirits.
Although Christmas will soon be behind us, there’s no need to be down about it. Instead, book one of our Holiday Apartments today and give yourself something to look forward to beyond this winter.
Disneyland Paris – a Magical Trip for all the Family
It’s not surprising that every child dreams of visiting Disneyland Paris. When you step through those pearly gates, every Disney film or cartoon you’ve ever seen comes to life in front of your very eyes. This American-derived theme park is much more than just rides and games – it provides a complete fairy-tale experience that visitors of all ages will adore.
Probably the most recognisable feature of the park is the Sleeping Beauty Castle that stands proudly in the centre of Fantasyland – one of the park’s 5 enchanting lands waiting to be explored. Each land has a unique theme from the American Wild West and buccaneering adventure, to bewitching fairy-tales and outer space. Within these lands are some timeless rides including ‘Peter Pan’s Flight’ and ‘it’s a small world’ that were first created in the early years of Disneyland America. There are also some new and improved rides including an even faster ‘Space Mountain: Mission 2’ for those in search of a thrill.
Get up close and personal with your favourite Disney characters that can often be seen in wandering around the various lands – and for any adults planning a trip – it’s perfectly acceptable to request a photo! Make sure you check out the times for the daily Disney Parade – an absolute must for your Disney schedule, with beloved Disney characters parading on past, to well-known Disney tunes.
If as a child, you didn’t get the chance to visit Disneyland Paris, it’s certainly not too late to be a part of the magic. A trip to Disneyland is sure to bring out your inner-child, and once you’re done running between the themed lands, head over to Disney Village, which has an array of bars, nightclubs, restaurants and live music performances.
Whether you’re visiting Disneyland Paris for a dedicated holiday or simply a day trip from the French capital, the Park is easily accessible by public transport from the city centre. Take the RER A commuter train from the Nation stations or the Chatelet-les-Halles, which will deliver you conveniently to the entrance of Disneyland Paris.
