Thu 26 May 2011
Skane, Sweden

For most Swedes, Midsummer (24 June) is the biggest and best party of the year. In a country with dark winters and short summers, celebrating the light and warmth is a must, and the whole country comes alive with lively outdoor celebrations. Stay in Skåne, Sweden’s bucolic south, which boasts 400km of beautiful coastline and glorious sandy beaches, plus plenty of public Midsummer gatherings. A week’s stay in converted farm Karlaby Kro costs from £1,205 pp (two sharing) in June, including flights (Heathrow), car hire and seven nights’ B&B.
