Travellers planning a trip in the UK now have the option of booking with Great Little Breaks, a brand new leisure brand offering stays in three- to five-star hotels and apartments.

The firm, which is part of parent company hotelshopuk.com, is starting off with products that can be divided into 12 categories, including Christmas and winter escapes, family breaks and gourmet getaways.

Valentine's Day celebrations, theatre visits, luxury experiences and other themes will be added to the range in future.

Alongside accommodation, Great Little Breaks will provide attraction passes, entrance to heritage properties, spa treatments, complimentary wine and other extras.

Managing director Vivienne Hudson said the brand is being launched just as demand for short getaways in the UK is growing.

In a speech to celebrate the start of the venture, Ms Hudson added: "We aim to delight each and every one of our customers with every aspect of their Great Little Break, from their initial contact with us - whether by web, phone or live online chat - to their return home, complete with a 'welcome home' email."

Sample introductory deals from the provider include a Christmas celebration in Chatsworth from £79.50 per person based on two sharing, which includes two nights' accommodation at the Aston Hotel and two Chatsworth House tickets.
