To find the best value destinations, the infographic compares the price of six typical holiday items such as a night's stay in a three-star hotel, a three-course meal, a pint of beer, visits to cultural attractions, and transport for 20 miles.

Staysure's graphic also provides the total amount of these costs and then set this against a £100 budget to see how much money travellers would be able to save (or spend).
