Hi we are looking for a girls weekend away. I am a little under the weather so nothing too strenuous maybe within 1 hour flight of heathrow.

Any suggestions

    1 hour? That's very limiting. Manchester? Paris, Dubin or Brussels possibly. You might be better looking at taking a train somewhere or upping your flying time to say 2/3 hous to make it worth while.
  • Little bit longer flight, but krakow is a lovely city, easy to get to it from the airport, straight on the train and your there.

    Nice city centre, good shopping and just lovely.
  • You would get to Amsterdam in that flight time. If you could stomach something a bit longer Barcelona is about 1.5 hours as is Prague.

    I was also going to suggest Amsterdam, easy to get around, good for shopping, museums and generally mooching about. Good weather not guaranteed though!
  • Eindhoven is quite a nice place for a weekend. I don't know what dates you're going but you can get there and back for not very much (e.g. http://soc.li/wWvN20e) Does mean taking either a train, national express or easyBus to stansted though. Or paying roughly double to fly from london city.
