. People are always chasing after some fleeting sense of escapism, and I think it's just a fancy way to justify paying more for overpriced accommodation and mediocre activities. And £200 for a voucher? That's like, a decent weekend away at a mid-range B&B, you know?
My fave one is this tiny cabin in the woods with a fireplace that's just begging for hot chocolate by the fire. Can't wait to submit my tip and win this amazing prize 
. Plus, it's a fantastic excuse to try out some new outdoor adventures like ice skating or snowshoeing 
. Now, as an adult, I think it's great that The Guardian is doing this comp to share some hidden gems. Should be easy peasy to come up with a good spot – there are loads of amazing rural escapes around the UK!
