Evening everyone,

Looking for Recommendations on where to go in the UK for either a night away or 2 nights away. Not to overly expensive + preferably suitable with 2 young kiddie winkles. Looking into Edinburgh at the moment, drive up on Thursday night after work/early Fri morning, leave Sunday morning. The hotel is £350 and then for the zoo and castle it's another £100, so looking at about £6-700 which I think is quite good. So yes any recommendations please.

    Yeah, that is a bit steep!

    Having said that, I'm not one to advise in this area as my idea of a holiday is a caravan at £200 for 7 nights :lol:

    As we're on the subject, why the UK?

    You could hop across the channel to Normandy or somewhere, we've done it before and it's very pleasant.

    No Passport + work. Because of the amount of hours I do, I get a 3 day weekend BUT I have to work Sunday nights... SO the initial plan is to finish work on Thursday night, pack and leave early Friday morning( like 3am) according to Google it'll take me 5 hours to get to Edinburgh book the Hotel for 2 nights and leave early Sunday morning to be back for night milking, also the only abroad I've been is Wales lol, other half as been to the meds etc but my family were poor lol. I didn't think £700 was to bad as it is a 4* hotel + there is 4 people in our room(me, other half & the kids)or it's £175 a night + the hotel has brilliant reviews for being a family hotel etc.
