Weekend away this weekend.

Hey all,

Wonder if anyone has any suggestions for a cheapish weekend away this weekend? Would like to go to Europe but can't find anything reasonable :-(

Thanks in advance

    Oops yeah sorry would have been useful to include that!

    Can fly from london or Birmingham/East Midlands. Budget approx £200 pp and there is 2 of us.
  • You can get 2 nights in Budapest for £165 each through lastminute.com 4* star hotel (Hotel Budapest) leaving Birmingham at 8.47am on Friday and arriving at Buda at 2pm...leaving Budapest at 2pm on Sunday.

    It's REALLY cheap once you get there too.
