Laura Hamilton has looked back on her 13-year stint presenting A Place in the Sun and revealed her three top destinations. It's fair to say that Laura, having hosted the sun-soaked Channel 4property-hunting showfor over a decade, has clocked up some serious air miles.

You would also expect that, after more than ten years of globetrotting, picking a favourite spot would prove tricky. But thankfully, for curious fans, Laura has whittled it down to just three choices.

During a recent chat where Laura discussed the programme's enduring popularity, she was quizzed about her most cherished locations.

• Gorgeous Greek island with 24C weather in October but no tourist crowds
• Gogglebox fans in tears as Malone family pay tribute to 'beautiful' co-star after death

She told Woman magazine how the first holds special family significance.

"I loved filming in South Africa," Laurarevealed. "My dad was born there. It was great to get to see that." South Africa, perched at the southern tip of the African continent, boasts one of Africa's largest and most developed economies.

The nationhas 12 official languages, encompassing Afrikaans, isiZulu, isiXhosa, and IsiNdebele. It's also renowned as a wildlife paradise, home to everything from lions and elephants to vervet monkeys and baboons.

Meanwhile, along the coastline, adventurous tourists might even glimpse great white sharksand dolphins.

Laura's second choice was considerably nearer to home. She revealed: "I also loved filming in Morzine, in the mountains of France. I'm a big skier and it was great to see it in the summer months.

Morzineis an alpine village nestled within the Chablais mountain range, positioned between the towering 4,800-metre Mont Blanc and Lake Geneva. This bustling ski resort boasts a rich history spanning more than 1,000 years.

In earlier centuries, monks and miners made Morzine their home. However, by the 1800s, with advancing technology, the area became renowned for its slate mining operations, an industry that brought wealth to the town.

Lastly, Laura selected Spain's stunning city of Granada and its encompassing mountain range. She went on: "Granada, Sierra Nevada, was amazing. Being on the beach in the morning and the slopes in the afternoon - that's amazing. There are places I've seen that I would probably not have got to go to."

Sierra Nevada describes a mountain range in Spain, located in the Andalusian province of Granada. It's reportedly also the location of Europe's most southerly skiresort, providing spectacular views across the Mediterranean.

This comes after reports revealed how Laura admitted to occasionally feeling exasperated by some "crazy" buyers on the programme. Speaking in the same interview, she was questioned whether people ever participate in the show simply to secure a free trip.

She dismissed this idea, explaining how it's a "week's work" and a massive decision for those taking part. Nevertheless, she also described how she has presented properties to people and thought "you're crazy" when they choose not to purchase them.
