And one Scottish village made it into the top locations under the peak escapism trend. Whether driven by wellness trends or a craving for fresh air, holidaymakers are swapping sun loungers for summit views. Search demand is soaring for mountain towns and rugged coastlines that offer real adventure - from hiking and wild swimming to unforgettable moments in nature. Balloch which sits on the shores of Loch Lomond has been named as one of the places to go. The stunning village offers easy access to the Trossachs National Park, and is perfect for kayaking, hiking and peaceful rambles. Airbnb added that the lochside spot has witnessed an increase in searches by well-over 100% this summer. Annie's Apartment has been suggested for a cosy stay - five minutes away from Loch Lomond. The charming village of Bushmills, Northern Ireland has also been named as a top destination for this trend. It's a stone's throw from the Giant's Causeway, and is a gateway to breathtaking cliff tops, and serene beaches. Five stunning, little-known holiday destinations Rocca Pietore in Veneto, Italy is the third location to be hailed as an escapism trip. Tucked in the heart of the Dolomites mountain range, this alpine village is perfect for glacier hikes, high-altitude trails and scenic cable car rides with jaw-dropping views. Luke Impett, Partnerships and External Affairs for Northern Europe at Airbnb, comments: "This summer, we're seeing a clear shift in how people want to travel. "Brits are moving beyond the typical beach holiday, leaning into adventure, culture, and moments that feel more personal - whether that's hiking along the dramatic coastline of Portrush, chasing live music in Manchester, or discovering food scenes off the beaten path in Tropea. "The demand for meaningful, immersive travel is growing and with Airbnb, guests can find everything from unique places to stay to authentic, local experiences."

Popular supermarket launches £20 dupe of £11k Birkin bags Victoria Beckham & Olivia Attwood love – it comes in 2 colours

You will soon be able to replicate the iconic Birkin bag look with a new budget-friendly dupe.

Even Kylie Jenner's daughter sported one when she was just learning to walk. However, at £11,000 a-piece, Birkins are not exactly a go-to buy for most people. But now you can pick up a similar style handbag at a much much cheaper price, and it is available in two colours. Fashion brand Tu have announced the re-launch a popular handbag style. The belted bag is will soon returned to UK shelves, reimagining the classic silhouette with sculptural lines. And this stylish and chic buy will only set you back £20, making it ideal for everyday use. In fact, the timeless design means it can be worn "season after season". Tu's Belted Bag is due to launch in late July and will be available from a variety of platforms. You will be able to order it online from as well as from I get stopped in the street by people asking where my perfume's from - it's a dupe of a designer scent & saves me £135 And most excitingly, it will also be stocked in select Sainsbury's stores. If black is not your colour and you're after something else, the supermarket is also adding a new Neutral Faux Leather Tote Bag in a classic cream shade. Priced at a wallet-friendly £20, this bag is sure to become a major hit - and you certainly don't want to miss out on it. Made of a faux leather material, the chic purse has a handle, adjustable strap, as well as multiple compartments for you to store away your daily essentials. One thrifty fashionista wrote: ''Really nice handbag for the price, nice large size but light in weight. ''Can use with handles or strap. Love it, beige or black. Nice every day bag.'' Someone else chimed in with their review, writing: ''For the price I had my money's worth and I will buy more as a back up. Great cheap bag for work.'' Tu clothing items are available in over 400 Sainsbury's locations across the UK. Birkin Bags remain highly sought after by celebrities and collectors due to its craftmanship. While a Birkin's exclusivity and rarity make it a hot commodity the style is actually quite relaxed. The classic Birkin silhouette is constructed in Hermès' signature retourne style. Why you should always buy a dupe over designer... Fashion Editor Clemmie Fieldsend says it's time fashion snobs stopped looking down their noses at affordable versions of designer buys. Bargain US supermarket Walmart became a social media sensation when its £60 dupe of Hermès' Birkin bag, dubbed the Wirkin, went viral. Influencer @styledbykristi gushed: "Eighty dollars (£60), you can pretend that you got a Birkin. I mean, everyone will probably know it's not, because who the hell has the money to spend on the real Birkin? Not me.' Me neither. And why bother? I would never spend that on a designer bag (although if someone wants to buy one for me, that's a different story). Plus, if I splashed that much, I'd feel I was being ripped off... We've all been told how the leading brands use the finest leather, thread, dyes and craftsmanship in the world. But all that is inflated by fashion houses to create the desired illusion of exclusivity. Just last year, Dior came under investigation for paying £44 to assemble a bag that sells for £2,000. So while you might think you are paying for top-level craftsmanship carried out by a true artisan, chances are the poorly paid workers are not seeing any of your hard-earned cash. Dupes — not to be mistaken for knock-offs that copy everything from the logo to the inside label — are a more practical and all-round sensible way to go. I bought my first when I was 18. It lasted me four years and only broke after I wore it in the shower. And these days, British high streets have plenty of dupes. In the past three years, Marks & Spencer, H&M and Mango have all seen huge spikes in sales thanks to their canny copies. They use the same viral, must-have marketing tactics that pricey brands have. Fashion folk will tell you that you are making an investment and buying a 'heritage piece' and will turn their noses up at a high street equivalent. But we've been wearing looks inspired by catwalk designers for decades. If we can buy a bag that's the spitting image of the pricier version, but doesn't mean you have to remortgage, why not? This means the bag is stitched inside out and then reversed, giving the piece a less structured and more relaxed shape M&S previously stocked a dupe for a Birkin bag that was over £10,000 cheaper than the original. Meanwhile, New Look has a dupe of the iconic Bottega buy, but £8,400 cheaper. And BooHoo recently slashed the price of a Molly-Mae bag dupe. 5 Olivia Attwood is also a fan of the iconic Birkin bag Credit: Instaggram / @olivia_attwood
