City Break Help Needed

Hi All,

I am looking to go on a city break at around 10th September. I've been to Paris and Barcelona before so those two are out of the question.

Any advice on anywhere to go and also can anyone find me any deals for a 3/4/5 night break? Would be departing from Gatwick probably!

Thanks

Matt

    Gent in belgium is a lovely city to visit. you could get the eurostar to lille or brussells and then a train on from there.
    a friend of mine who has visited many cities in europe recommended prague, gent and barcelona, saying that they had the best scenery and were great value for money.
