Affordable Weekend Treats

Question of the week: Can you recommend an affordable weekend getaway?

"A great way to travel somewhere new and save some money on the journey is by visiting Great Britain’s south coast, particularly, Brighton. Brighton is a colourful, funky town full of shops, cafes, and a fun promenade, and the coastline, well, helps. For me, anything surrounded or accompanied by a body of water is more beautiful, so a cheap train fare to Brighton on a Friday and a return on a Saturday night is well worth the time and (not so much) money. Check National Rail and see that you can get a return journey for under £40. Once there, I’d recommend indulging a bit (since you’ve already saved so much on the travel!) and stay at a B&B rather than an impersonal hotel or crammed hostel. The prices are not too high, and the experience is well worth it!"- Christina
