If you're on the hunt for a city break that won't break the bank, then you're in luck. While London is a popular city break for British families, a weekend in the capital is extremely expensive.
Accommodation, activities and food costs are all sky high but don't panic. You don't have to empty your accounts for a stunning weekend break - in fact, there are plenty of beautiful places on the UK's doorstep. Jen Carr, family travel expert and founder of The Travel Mum has shared her five favourite and affordable city breaks, perfect for families. And she says they can all work out cheaper than London.


She says: "As a mum of two and a lifelong bargain hunter, I've made it my mission to prove that you don't need to spend a fortune to make unforgettable family memories. In fact, with a little flexibility and some clever planning, it's often cheaper for my family of four to jet off abroad than to holiday right here in the UK."
