Iceland was named as being the priciest of them all. The average expenditure in this country is over £200 per night, which comes to £2,890 over two weeks – £1,882 more than a fortnight in Poland.
Switzerland was found to be the most expensive destination outside of the Nordic region, where holidaymakers’ average expenditure is £173.56 per night – £2,428 across a two-week break.
Meanwhile, the United States of America is the most expensive country outside of Europe, where travellers spend an average of £157 per night, equal to £2,206 across a fortnight.
Rhys Jones, travel expert at Go.Compare, said: “Times have been tight over the last few years, but you still deserve some time off and it’s not impossible to travel on a budget. Looking into which destinations are cheapest once you arrive can help you identify which places will get you the most value for money.
“Poland and Spain look to be the best options for holidaymakers looking to keep costs down, as they’re not too far to travel and offer relatively low expenditure once you arrive.
“Although, plenty of other European destinations can make good options, too. It might be best to avoid the Nordic countries, as these tend to be on the more expensive end of the scale, particularly Iceland and Finland.”
