In contrast, the European countries voted at the lowest rung on the list for retail offerings were Poland (7%), Estonia (7%) and Sweden (6%).
The YouGov survey also gathered opinions to discover the top voted European destinations for good food – Italy ranked highest at 48%, followed closely by France at 45%.
Furthermore, although Spain got an average grading in the shopping category, it ranked highest for 'good fun, socialising and parties' (41%). Respondents voted for Greece in second place at 18%, followed by Italy (16%) and the UK (13%).
