Ghent
Ljubljana
Seville
Edinburgh
Lisbon
Had some excellent girls' weekends in the above.
Do NOT be tempted by Lille.
Have fun!

I randomly went to Gdańsk a few years ago. Flew from Leeds Bradford. Great city.

Porto is one of my favourites, great weather, great food and drink and very pretty.

If you're wanting to travel then Lyon was amazing. For this country Canterbury is lovely and great cost in v close proximity

Copenhagen or Amsterdam
Dubrovnik
Or Pollensa in Majorca (old town)

Salzburg, Stockholm, Helsinki, Lucca. Out of all of those, think I'd pick Lucca.

Some great ideas, bonus if it's cheap, either to get there, or food and drink when you get there

Vilnius and Gdansk look like possibilities, any recomdations on what areas.

Malaga city. NOT the costas, the city itself. You gals will have a ball. Shopping in and around Calle Larios, tapas, bars, restaurants, the beach, the history, the castle, the cathedral, Picasso Museum etc.
€3 bus from the airport, and it is reasonable food and drink wise if you go back a few streets from the main tourist areas.

Just popped in to see recommendations and now I've decided to go to Gdańsk! Yay!
I spend a lot of time in Copenhagen for work and it's lovely as is Amsterdam.
Lisbon is great.
Always fancied Prague or Talinn
