WE all need a holiday every-now-and-then, but sometimes the high cost of travel makes it impossible. But travelling in Europe doesn't have to be expensive, if you know where to go and when to go. Here are the cheapest city breaks on the continent ( including the flights !).

Malaga enjoys one of the warmest winters in Europe , with tempreatures rarely dropping below 12°C. That makes it a great place to travel to , throughout the year. Travelling with Jet2Holidays to Sol Guadalmar, from £195pp, would be a great way to catch some rays before winter hits the UK.

Barcelona is known for its stunning and artistic Gothic Quarter, as well as the beach clubs that stay open well into the night. It's a city that has something for everyone and it's a city that caters for everyone too. Barcelona produces some of the best food in Spain, which you can enjoy in a warm, winter sun.

You can travel with Jet2 for two nights for £190pp or with British Airways from £149pp . Krakow is one of the most exciting cities in Poland , having once been the nation's capital. The city is home to Wawel Castle which is over 1000 years old and was once said to house a dragon.

You can visit the legendary Polish city, with Jet2 from £210pp or Hilton from £105pp . Gdansk is known as the Amber Capital in the Baltic Sea, because of so much of the gem washes up on its shores . The city has beautiful architecture, such as its Neptune Fountain, and restaurants with great food that don't cost a fortune.
