April in the UK is unpredictable. In one moment, you're hosting a barbecue to celebrate a three-day heat wave but in the next, you're dashing for cover as yet another April downpour clouds the skies. April is the perfect time to plan a holiday to somewhere where the weather is less likely to dictate your days.
