Vol. IV Nine exceptional deals
a word on the season

Nine of the year's
finest journeys, at
their cheapest prices.

Twice a year, I release a small collection of journeys at prices I don't offer at any other time. These are the ones I've chosen for this season — each one hand-picked, each one bookable until the next edition arrives.

01 Benidorm on a budget!
Deal of the Week Was £2,499 pp £2,000Per family!

Enjoy a family break at Terralta Apartments, tucked into a quieter residential spot with spacious apartments and a lovely pool. Poniente Beach is around a 15-minute walk away, so you can mix relaxed pool days with time by the sea. The apartments are on a steep hill, something to bear in mind when planning your walks.

The Collection

Nine journeys, this season only.

Each one is hand-picked and each one is bookable at this price until the season closes. After that, the next collection appears — usually quite different, often more expensive.

The best special isn't the one with the largest discount. It's the one that quietly turns out to be the best trip you've ever taken.
Fiona MacLeod · Speyside Signature Travel
Good to Know

Questions about this edition.

i.

How long do these specials last?

+
Each edition of the Specials collection runs for a season — usually around three months. Short-notice offers (at the bottom of the page) run for a week. Once an edition closes, the next one is published with new selections. If a particular journey you've seen here is no longer available, I'll always find the closest possible alternative.
ii.

Can I use these prices for any dates?

+
Each journey specifies which travel dates the price applies to — usually a window of a few weeks to a few months. If your preferred dates fall outside the advertised window, do contact me anyway. I can often find a comparable price even when the headline offer doesn't technically apply.
iii.

Are these offers ATOL protected?

+
Yes. Every journey in this collection is fully financially protected, whether it involves commercial flights, private aviation, or ground-only arrangements. You'll receive formal documentation at the time of booking, along with a dedicated 24/7 emergency contact for the duration of your travel.
iv.

Can I combine multiple offers?

+
In most cases, yes — but it depends on which ones. Free child places can usually be combined with early-booking discounts, for example. Two headline offers generally cannot be stacked. I'll always be clear upfront about what combines and what doesn't, so there are no surprises later.
v.

What happens if a deal sells out?

+
When a particular journey sells out, I'll always offer the closest possible alternative — usually a similar property, dates, or itinerary at a comparable price. Being flexible on travel dates often opens up better options anyway. My aim is to find you the right holiday, not just to sell a specific offer.
vi.

How do I hear about the next edition?

+
Subscribe to the newsletter at the bottom of this page. Readers receive each new edition a few days before it goes live publicly, along with the occasional short-notice offer that never appears here at all. There's no obligation and no spam — just the good stuff, a few times a year.
