Does it even exist?
Looking for a cheap mini city break in August for 7 people age range 5-60. Ideally 3-4 rooms. I’m not getting much for a reasonable price on airbnb so thought I should cast my net further afield. Is an abroad city break even doable? Budget up to 1k for a couple nights

We got 4 adults flights and accommodation for 800 for Pisa, Italy. We definitely didn't choose the cheapest options, so maybe worth a look?

I’m looking in to all the options mentioned and there is definitely some potentials including Brussels. A Uk coastal break would be preferred but it’s looking unlikely at this stage but a few good options so far at least, thanks everyone!

Hi OP, I've just put some example random dates in Ryanair: London Luton to Dublin x 6 adults & 1 x child = £336.56. These are based on dates of 7th Aug - returning 10th Aug (cheapest flight times and basic luggage options). Accommodation is a Premier Inn Hotel in Dublin North Docklands (Based on 3 rooms, on a room only basis: room 1 - 2x adult, room 2 - 2x adult, room 3 - 2x adult, 1x child) = £809.00. Grand total = £1,145.56. Just over budget, but could be an option if you want a budget friendly option city break and use the hotel as a base to explore the city.

Or, you could look a little further out of Dublin city centre for larger accommodation, which gets you a 5 Bed House Airbnb, taking you over budget a little more (£952.00 for Airbnb), with a grand total of £1,288.56:

5 Bed Dublin Airbnb

Good luck with the search, it is possible on a budget if you can be flexible with flight times, dates, accommodation, etc.
