There comes a point, usually somewhere between GCSE revision, endless football fixtures and teenagers disappearing behind bedroom doors, when you realise family holidays are changing. The years of finding a shallow pool and a kids’ club are behind you. Your children are old enough now to remember trips properly.

Last weekend we went to Jerez de la Frontera in sunny Spain, for the Sherry Marathon. Jerez is under 90mins from Seville by train.
