It's my brothers birthday in August and I've been tasked with finding him and his mates a cheap weekend away which involves a bit of sight seeing and a lot of drinking!!

They gave me the above list of places and the criteria is it must be cheap and fly from any London airport

Calling on the experts of CS for their valuable opinions and experiences

I can't remember the name of where we stayed but it wasn't even £200 for flights and 4 nights accommodation. It was hot. A round of 10 beers didn't even cost £10 and it was lovely beer too. Plenty to do out there and theres a lake to the south of the city that has bars all round it which is ideal if you just want to lay in the sun and chill.

I would highly recommend it.

Oh I have also been to Tallinn and that was also a great place. Went in December and it was light for about 4 hours in the day. Got the ferry over to Helsinki one of the days we were out there for about €30. Also very cheap though not as cheap as it once was since they took on the Euro. Still only a couple of quid for a beer. Local beer also delicious. Went to a medieval theme bar in the main square that had the hottest girl I've ever seen playing bongos. They did a honey flavoured beer that done fucked me up

I always thought Tallinn was Estonia, eastern Europe? I always assumed Estonia Latvia etc were further south around Czech etc... Didn't realise how close they were to Scandinavia
