Embrace the British Winter and Win a Luxury Break
The Guardian Travel section has launched an exciting competition inviting UK residents to share their favourite outdoor winter activities for a chance to win a £200 voucher towards a Coolstays property. With winter approaching and days growing shorter, the initiative encourages people to beat the seasonal blues by getting out into nature.
What Activities Can You Share?
Whether you're passionate about cold-water swimming, stargazing, birdwatching, or simply enjoy wrapping up for a bracing walk or off-road bike ride, the competition welcomes all UK-based outdoor winter pursuits. The organisers are particularly interested in hearing how people embrace the colder months and find joy in nature during this special time of year.
Competition Details and Judging
The competition will be judged by Tom Hall of Lonely Planet, who will select the best tip of the week. Entries should be approximately 100 words, and while participants may submit relevant photos, the judging will focus solely on the written content. The winning entry and other standout tips will be featured in the Guardian Travel section and on their website.
Important eligibility requirements state that entrants must be UK residents aged 18 or over. The competition closes on Monday 1st December at 10am GMT. Coolstays, the prize provider, offers more than 3,000 properties worldwide, giving the winner plenty of choice for their future getaway.
Participants can submit their tips anonymously if preferred, and all responses are securely encrypted with only the Guardian having access to the contributions. The publication has assured that personal data will be deleted when no longer required for the competition feature.
