The countries where the pound in your pocket will go a lot further

Here are the countries where the British pound in your pocket will go a lot further, according to Numbeo's Cost of Living Index.

Albania

Located along the Adriatic Sea in Southern Europe, Albania enjoys a number of allures ideal for tourism, including white sandy beaches, turquoise waters and dramatic mountains and cliffs.

The country has even been dubbed the "next Croatia" by many because of its low cost and beautiful coastline. Meals typically cost around £5 per person while a pint of beer will set you back around 60-70p.

Tunisia

Tunisia in North Africa boasts some of the most impressive archaeological sites anywhere in the world as well as luxury hotels.

Despite this, the country has a low cost of living with visitors able to find rooms for under £100 per night. A three-course meal for two people can also be as little as £15.

Portugal

Portugal is sometimes dubbed a 'more affordable' Spain with it long being known as one of the cheapest places you can visit in Western Europe.

Whether you're after a relaxing beach holiday or want to sample some of the nation's wonderful culture, there is something for everyone.

With pints costing a little over £1 and a UNESCO World Heritage site being found with Nessebar, the country is a great place to add to your travel list.

Montenegro
