Whether it’s the excitement of chugging across the Aegean on a ferry bound for a remote Greek isle or tucking into your first seafood platter on one of the many idyllic islands off France’s Atlantic coast, nothing beats a stay on an island for a sense of total escape. Fortunately, Europe and the UK have thousands of inhabited islands to choose from, from the buzzing Balearics to the wild and remote Faroe Islands. We’d love to hear about your favourite island getaway.
