Dubai<\/a> is an ideal place to escape Britain’s chilly and interminably long winter. With an average temperature of 21\u00b0C \u00a0and at least 8 hours of sunshine\u00a0in December<\/a>, and\u00a0ditto January<\/a> bar a few degrees (less) – heading to Dubai for some winter sunshine is definitely a clever move!<\/p>\n
