MILAN

POP over to Milan, see the sights, eat fabulous food… and then take a shopping trip out to McArthurglen Serravalle, the largest designer outlet village in Europe, with 240 luxury fashion and lifestyle brands, from Gucci and Yves Saint Laurent, to sportswear giants and independent European cashmere and shoe brands, such as Malo and Stonefly. Discounts range from 30 to 70 per cent. The village offers a service to post any purchases to the UK so you don’t have to take anything back on your flight. It also has six restaurants on site with music festivals in summer.
