I would happily go back to Cornwall though as I love it there. Haven't been abroad for 5 or 6 years now and on the way back we had really bad turbulence it put my off flying :o(
I've not been on holiday for 4 years but, if I can join in, I went to Toronto after my brother's wedding out there to spend time with a good friend I hadn't seen since uni. I wouldn't be fussed about Toronto again, save to see my friend (would rather go back to San Francisco or New York again, city wise) but would love to travel up to the more French Canadian parts, Quebec, Montreal and Ottowa though that would take some serious saving.
I went to Madrid for 3 days a month ago and I can't wait to go back!
There are lots of attractions but it really helps if you like art. The Museo del Prado is unmissable, The Museo Nacional Centro de Art Reina Sofia (modern art) is stunning, if somewhat confusing at times! But my absolute favourite has to be the Museo Sorolla:

There's great food available (at surprisingly low prices) everywhere and getting around couldn't be easier. (The Metro system is modern, efficient and, importantly, fully air-conditioned).
Best of all though, my hotel was absolutely wonderful. It was a little 6 room pensión with an incredibly friendly and helpful manager, just 100m off the Gran Via, with TV, air-conditioning and free wifi. It was spotlessly clean and (because it was up on the 4th floor) nice and quiet. All for just €22 per night!

Just got back this morning from our holiday. We flew to Swizterland and hired a car then drove over the Alps to an Italian beach resort where we stayed for a week. What a holiday! I would definitely do this again. I cannot tell you how beautiful Switzerland was - towering mountains still with snow on, ice blue lakes, waterfalls falling over sheer cliffs. We saw chalets and cows with bells round their necks and even visited a glacier. Then we had a lovely relaxing week in the sun. Fantastic!
Just returned from the Isle of Man. This was our third visit (in four years) to this delightful & unspoiled island. We enjoyed fantastic weather, clear skies and Mediterranean-blue seas. There is so much to see on this island and yet it isn't far to travel from place to place. Home to the Manx TT and Manx Grand Prix, it is best avoided during one week in June and one week in August.
The fuchsia bushes growing wild everywhere are a clue to the island's mild climate.
We'll be returning next year for eight or ten days of our holiday, probably in July, and will be taking our car from Liverpool on board the Manannan hovercraft.

My input. Portugal Have been twice this year. People very friendly including those in the shops. Will go back.
Ibiza. Might return one day, but not to Santa Eulalia. Too many restaraunts,(OK for sitting in people watching all night. Not my cup of tea) not enough entertainment for my age group.
Valencia. Have been twice, once for the Fallas. hope to go back one day.
Cyprus. Hope to visit one day. visit places I spent when I was a youngster.
