IF you're looking for an extra special getaway this summer, then you might want to book yourself into one of the luxurious penthouse suites on Cunard's Queen Victoria cruise-liner.

Because the ship is about to have a massive £34 million upgrade and the new suites are the stuff of dreams.

Whether you're planning a honeymoon or just want to splash the cash on an extra special honeymoon - the ship's new features make it into a dream holiday option.

New pictures have been released to give us a look inside the five penthouse suites and they couldn't look more stunning.

They feature private balconies, so you can get your own view of the seas and ports you'd be visiting, extra storage space and top class bedrooms.

The new refurbishment will offer cabanas and windbreakers for guests to shelter from the sun by the lido

The suites even come with their own whirlpool baths and a butler service, as well as a concierge, to make sure your every need is met.

But it's not just the suites that have had an upgrade in this refurbishment, because the standard rooms are looking pretty impressive too.

The Britannia Club Staterooms all now have flat screen TVs and some now even have their own balconies too.

Elsewhere on the ship, guests are offered the use of a lido sundeck to soak up those rays, with cabanas and windbreakers if you need some shade.

The new Winter Garden is also the perfect spot to sit back and relax after a day's sun - with floor to ceiling windows meaning you don't have to miss out on those views.

The ship will be out of service from May 5 until June 4, 2017, to complete the work, but the ship will then return to Southampton to make its maiden four night voyage to Amsterdam and Bruges.

Recently, a cruise company dropped a famous Mexican resort from its itinerary because of growing violence in the region, while a London tour operator is selling trips to the Titanic in a submarine – but it will set you back £86,000.
