Three runners up will receive one £200 Hotels.com voucher each. The competition, open to UK residents over 18, will encourage participants to take a holiday, however short, even in these hard economic times. Alison Couper, Communications Director for Hotels.com, said: "The simple act of going on holiday for just a single night is relaxing and a change from the stresses and strains of life. "All of our research shows that people see holidays as a right not a luxury and the rise in searches for nanobreaks is further evidence of holidaymakers' determination to keep travelling. "We hope this competition will reward that determination with a bit of creative fun and encourage more people to take a much needed break."
