It is also very close to London making it a very popular destination for those wanting to get out of the capital for a city break away from the city.
Cheshire
Located in North West England, Cheshire is ideal for a long weekend breaks and most well known for its small rural villages and footballers homes. It also home to historic cities such as Chester which was once a major Roman settlement and offers an insight into how the occupation of Chester was at that time. Moving away from Chester there are many beautiful rural towns to retreat to enjoy your UK weekend away.
Bournemouth
For breaks away here it sometimes doesn’t feel like it’s in England in the summer being blessed with clear skies, crystal clear blue waters looking out onto the English Channel and golden sandy beaches. These are just some of the reasons as to why it has quickly become one of the most popular destinations for UK holidaymakers and has since retained that reputation almost consistently year after year.
Cotswolds
Sometimes referred to as the Cotswolds hills, this is a rural area of England that has been designated as an area of outstanding natural beauty and has long been home to some of the most beautiful retreats in the whole of England. Spoilt with an abundance of nature trails and acres of forests and countryside this area has been beautifully conserved and makes for the perfect weekend getaway.
Are there any under £100?
Some of the short weekends we’ve looked at today and others elsewhere can be found for around £100 but these are sometimes very hard to find - especially if you've got family breaks in mind. If you raise your budget just a little bit plenty more avenues are opened. And the facilities, amenities and locations will be that much better. In addition, some locations and retreats won’t have any lodges that come at that price range so you are also limiting the locations you can visit in the UK. We hope you have found some of these short break deals worthwhile and you find your dream weekend away in England.
We have gone through the effort of putting together for you a special offers page with the best weekend deals from Sykes, Hoseasons and Cottages.com so that you don’t have to look far to get a great deal. What's more, these providers often have offers on a last minute weekend break, and you'll find them all right here!
2 Nights, 3 Nights or 4 Days - What do I choose?
The beauty of a short UK break is that it can be as long or as short as you want it to be! That said, you can often find great deals if you're willing to stay longer because that makes less work for your hosts having to clean, check in and check out between guests. So if you're looking for cheap breaks in the UK, 3 nights is a good minimum to set yourself. This also means you have plenty of time to explore and relax!
But if you're short on time or budget, you can still find some fabulously cheap 2 night family breaks or weekend getaways right here.

Having given you all of this information today we hope this has helped you pick your perfect destination for a short break in England whether it be for a week or a weekend away in the UK. We have provided all different options for people with different interests and also for all different party sizes whether you’re a romantic couple, a parent booking your family holidays, or a group of friends simply wanting some fun on your weekend break.
