Now that the world is re-opening I am thinking of treating myself to a cheap holiday (maybe 2 weeks) relaxing somewhere with a nice view, no walking, no jungle camping lol, no swimming etc...
I would not say much of my condition has improved since receiving ESA Support Group 5 months ago, but like i said I have not been abroad for 3 years and I want to cheer myself up after what I have been through.
The rules state that I can go abroad for up to 4 weeks without any change in my benefit status? Is this correct and only for EU or anywhere in the world?

You are supposed to tell them but it does only become an issue if you are away for more than 28 days.1
