WHY GO
Sipping a daiquiri by the pool, all life's stresses melt away. I've been in Lanzarote two hours and already, this frazzled mum is in paradise. In a parenting life normally filled with endless mundane decisions, here, there's nothing to think about. There's no "are the kids warm enough?" (it's 29°C); no "are they hungry?"; no "what are we doing next?" So park your preconceptions about Brits Abroad package holidays - because this could be your ultimate chill-out break, too.
With its volcanic landscapes, bustling Sunday market, rocky hiking trails and cultural attractions, there's more to Lanzarote than you'd imagine. It's also a mere four hours' flight from the UK and offers sunshine year-round.

The recently renovated Seaside Los Jameos is one of the best beachfront hotels in Puerto Del Carmen on the southeast side of the island, just 10 minutes from the airport - warding off moans of, "Are we nearly there yet?" We shared an airy family room with a sea view balcony, giving us a vista across the sub-tropical gardens to the beach.
