Cork, Paris and Edinburgh are brilliant places to come for interesting but cheap holidays. You’ll find some of the most spectacular castles in the world in these vibrant cities. Wander around these to discover the fantastic architecture and shocking myths surrounding these vast buildings. These wonderful cities have so many landmarks, activities and historic buildings to explore.
Paris is a favourite choice when it comes to European city breaks. The Palace of Fontainebleau is one of the most spectacular palaces in the city, but few visitors to Paris pay a visit here. It’s worth making the 55km trip to the palace to wander around the elaborate palace and gardens. It’s worth visiting the forests around here, which can be explored on bike, horse or by foot. For cheap holidays to Paris, stay in hotels outside the city centre but close to public transport links, allowing you easy access to all parts of Paris.
For those looking for an exciting nightlife and fascinating historic sights, visit Cork. Tourists travel to Cork to visit Blarney Castle, one of Ireland’s greatest treasures. Built 600 years ago by one of Ireland’s greatest chieftains, Cormac McCarthy – the King of Munster. The Stone of Eloquence is the main tourist draw at Blarney, and can be found at the top of the tower. The legend says that if you kiss the stone, you will never be lost for words again.
It’s not hard to see why Edinburgh has become one of the most popular destinations for city breaks. Guests can come here to admire the astonishing landscape and of course visit Edinburgh Castle. Throughout the years, many Kings and Queens have lived in the castle and witnessed some dramatic and shocking events which you can learn about when visiting. Even though the city is full of luxurious hotels, you can enjoy some very cheap holidays here.
