The British winter: rain, heavy; trains, cancelled; Christmas, expensive. How many times have you thought that there might be an alternative to grey skies and cold weather- one that will not break the bank? Wintering abroad used to be the preserve of the very wealthy, yet since the advent of cheaper, easier travel, anyone who has the time to spare can escape the winter...and even save some money in the process. No one knows more about ascaping the British winter than acclaimed travel write Anne Mustoe, who has happily spent every Christmas overseas since 1987.
