But for just £650, they could leave their worries behind, and enjoy a blissful 28 days relaxing on a sunny beachfront in Egypt – with all food, drinks (including alcohol), and snacks included in the price.

The Stella Gardens Resort, in Hurghada, Egypt, boasts a free spa and gym, world-renowned cuisine, complimentary Wi-Fi and TV streaming services, and six swimming pools – in case guests get tired of lounging on the private beach.

And with the average winter temperatures sitting at around 20°C, it’s no wonder nearly half of Brits are considering the escape this winter to avoid heating bill hikes.

The unmissable holiday offer, from great-value provider easyJet, comes as a poll of 2,000 Brits revealed that 40 percent have already searched online for cheap foreign winter getaways, to avoid cost-of-living woes.

But nearly a third have no idea of the deals that are out there – with 28 percent of respondents under the impression that a month-long holiday for a family of four would come in at twice their usual living costs.

The latest ONS figures show that average British household costs are set to top £2,225 per month.

That includes over £1,000 on accommodation, £175 on gas and electricity, and £368 on food – when split into average costs per person.

But easyJet’s new luxury break blows that out of the water – making for an excellent deal for the 47 percent of Brits seriously considering leaving the country to escape the cost-of-living crisis.

And personal finance expert and author, Lynn Beattie, founder of Mrs Mummypenny, reviewed the cost comparison data.

Lynn, an ACMA management accountant, said: “The data collected in this study is incredibly insightful, showing just how much the average household in the UK will spend on the most basic of living expenses.

“While escaping abroad does not make all our financial commitments disappear, it’s startling to know that like for like, it’s cheaper to buy an all-inclusive holiday than stay in the UK this winter.

“For consumers who could viably sublet/Airbnb their homes and work abroad, the new package deal by easyJet holidays poses a very attractive offer.”

Matt Callaghan, easyJet holidays’ customer and operations director, added: “With a growing number of Brits now searching online to see if they can escape abroad this winter, we knew we needed to try to provide consumers with a solution.

“We looked at everything an easyJet holidays package deal has to offer, and have been able to confirm that yes, comparably, our new 28-day winter escape is cheaper than staying at home this year.”

The package goes on sale today starting at £650pp for 28 days, and can be booked via easyJet.com.
