This involved taking regular "staycations" in Cornwall for his holidays (though he did manage to sneak off to Lanzarote shortly before the Referendum campaign). Unsurprisingly, now that he's out of Downing Street, he's dropped the pretence of restraint, with beach snaps of the ex-PM and his wife enjoying a £15,000 Corsican holiday appearing on the front page of the Daily Mail.
