More than half of couples in the UK have admitted they are happiest when they are on holiday with their other half.
The survey, commissioned by sunshine.co.uk, found 52% of couples feel happiest when on holiday with their partner.
The poll involved 1,936 people and looked at the impact holidays can have on a relationship. Of those who took part, 964 had recently been in a relationship that had lasted between one and two years. The remainder had been in a relationship of five years or more – and were still in it.
Participants who had been in a 1-2 year relationship, were asked if they had been on holiday regularly – at least once a year – with their partner before they separated. 78% said no, but when those in longer relationships were asked the same question, 72% said yes.
The research therefore suggests that, if going on holiday together regularly, there is a better chance that the relationship will last longer.
On the other hand, the survey found that time apart from the other half is equally as important for a relationship. In fact, 61% said that 'time apart/space' was important. Interestingly, 27% of respondents said they would spend every moment of every day with their partner if they could.
Meanwhile, 82% said they felt holidays together were 'very' important or a relationship.
Sue Anderson, from sunshine.co.uk, commented: "Holidays seem to be the secret to happy, healthy relationships. Our poll suggests that regular trips away together can lead to a longer relationship, but obviously there's other work that has to go into a partnership too.
"If you can spare the time and some of your savings to go on a trip somewhere with your significant other, it's definitely money well spent according to these results. We'd be interested to know people's thoughts on holidaying without your spouse when you're in a relationship. Does absence make the heart grow fonder in that case, or is that a recipe for disaster?"
