British post-holiday chatter is frequently peppered with remarks and references to the pennies saved once we return home with more loose change than expected, our bellies as full as our hearts after days ticking a new destination off of the ever-growing bucket list. As any thrifty traveller knows, it\u2019s all in the planning \u2013 yet it\u2019s the endless search and consequential indecision that all too often keeps the trip in the group chat. Faff no more, we say! Here, we\u2019ve rounded up a selection of the cheapest destinations to travel to from London this <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cntraveller.com\/gallery\/best-holiday-destinations-in-february\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">February<\/a>, whether you\u2019re seeking a last-minute bargain among the Winter Olympics fanfare in Milan or short-haul winter sunshine along the Moroccan coast.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Image may contain Architecture Building Church Landmark Duomo Di Milano and Person\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"ResponsiveImageContainer-eNxvmU cfBbTk responsive-image__image\"   src=\"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/Milan_Italy_120126_GettyImages-2154242762.jpg\"\/><\/p>\n<p>Golden sunrise sky over the Duomo, Milan<\/p>\n<p>Getty ImagesMilan, Italy<\/p>\n<p>Milan has long been one of the most affordable flight routes from London and, surprisingly, the arrival of the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cntraveller.com\/article\/how-to-plan-a-last-minute-winter-olympics-trip-to-italy\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Olympic Winter Games Milano Cortina 2026<\/a> hasn\u2019t changed that.

If in doubt, use Italy\u2019s fashion capital as a launchpad, whizzing into Milan\u2019s beating heart to soak up the sporting action over lunch (with a couple of attractions, hand-luggage-only-permitting) before making use of excellent train connections. Within hours of landing, you could be experiencing <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cntraveller.com\/article\/low-season-lake-como\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">low-season Lake Como<\/a> or gazing up at Juliet\u2019s balcony in Verona.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Price:<\/strong> From \u00a323 per adult return<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Image may contain Architecture Building Monastery Clock Tower Tower City Bell Tower and Urban\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"ResponsiveImageContainer-eNxvmU cfBbTk responsive-image__image\"   src=\"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/Bratislava_Slovakia_120126_GettyImages-697557913.jpg\"\/><\/p>\n<p>View to Michael&#8217;s Gate in Bratislava&#8217;s Old Town<\/p>\n<p>Getty ImagesBratislava, Slovakia<\/p>\n<p>Imagine sweeping views of the winding Danube River and the frosty <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cntraveller.com\/article\/these-are-officially-the-world-best-vineyards\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">vineyards<\/a> beyond from a castle turret, or slow afternoons feasting your way through cobblestone streets before settling into a bar as folk music welcomes the evening crowd. Bratislava remains one of Europe\u2019s most underrated, affordable gems, and is an excellent choice for a February escape. Best of all, you may be well ahead of the crowds.
