    Hi all,

    I need some help. Myself and my partner would like a week in the sun (as we had snow here the other day - Aberdeen) from the week beginning 15th May.

    We don't care where we go as long as it is sunny, relatively nice and will have some things to do both in the day and in the evenings.

    We want to keep it cheap, our budget for flights and accomodation (all inclusive would be better but we'll consider anything) inc transfers etc, is 500 pounds.

    Can anyone suggest? We've tried teletext holidays, but we're finding that a lot of the prices aren't actually the real deal and they are actually more expensive. (one by 100 pounds difference)

    We will fly from anywhere in Scotland!

    Thanks!
    how about Malta ? ,we went in may 2001 not that many beeches but hot, well worth a trip. :j :j

    another cheap flight possibilty is to Girona or Reus this opens up possibilities of either staying somewhere on the coast or Barcelona itself (or combine the 2 if travelling fairly lightly)
    www.ryanair.com for flights.
    For departures on the 13th May, returning on 20th May

    Total cost to Reus = £81 per person inc tax
    Total cost to Girona = £101 inc tax

    Someone else might be able to recommend somewhere to stay - if it were me, I would do 4 or five nights on the coast, then do 2 nights in Barcelona (including a good night out on the Friday).

    Or for something completely different, flights to Rome for £2.49 + tax on those dates (but accommodation harder to find and italy is more expensive).
  • Hi guys, thanks for all these suggestions, they will come in very helpful.

    I may have to put on hold - i broke my foot last night playing football!!! 6 weeks in plaster, which might affect it, but we haven't decided yet!

    We will have a good look at some of these ideas, and any others that come through and let you know.

    Thanks again!
