Cheap weekend getaway

If you are going on a weekend getaway, and you need to be on a low budget. Then you should consider these options for a cheap weekend getaway:

• Make an long weekend trip by train. It does not cost so much and it's a safe way of travelling. It is also, not to be forgotten, very friendly to the environment. Stay over at a hotel and take the train back the next day. Most trains has a good restaurant onboard.
• If you are looking for a really cheap weekend getaway, then maybe you should not go away yourself? If you could send the kids away instead and stay at home, it might be as good as any hotel. Cook a nice meal, drink an expensive bottle of wine and enjoy the silence. Of course you need to be sure the phone doesn't ring.
