Holidaymakers offered Valentine's Day tips |

 Brits hoping to escape the UK and take a break abroad for Valentine's Day have been offered some travel tips.
Nick Trend, editorial director at Simonseeks, said people should remember that it falls during one of the coldest months of the year and may wish to opt for a destination where there is likely to be some sunshine.
"The other thing to bear in mind of course is it [Valentine's Day] is right at the beginning of half term this year so if you are going away as a couple you have got to vie with all the families too," he commented.
Couples travelling over the weekend should consider booking a day off work and flying back on the Monday as this is often a cheaper option than Sunday, Mr Trend added.
