Have you considered a coach holiday to a specific city? You get terrific value for money; most companies pick you up locally and all the hotel bookings including meals, tours etc are done for you at group booking prices.

I enjoyed Belgium in the winter, shopping, markets, art museums, battle-field tours (maybe?) and the food is really superb.

What's your budget? What do you enjoy?

Edinburgh looks appealing but I'll take a look at prices for Bruges and Amsterdam too. Is Bruges quite compact? Thanks for the suggestions.

I went to Brussels in November a couple of years ago, and was surprised at how interesting, and full of things to do it was. I have also been to Bruges in the winter. It was lovely. As for Britain, what about Edinburgh or Glasgow or Newcastle upon Tyne?

Amsterdam is accessible and very interesting.....

It's my 30th wedding anniversary at the end of January and I'd like to book a short break for the two of us either in the UK or a short flight to Europe, I have a smallish budget and would prefer city to countryside . Any suggestions?
