Fed up with expensive Euro prices? Want a great summer week at affordable prices? Like the idea of your own apartment or villa with a group of friends - freedom and your own place with no hotel hassles. Then go for Siofok on the coast of Lake Balaton in Hungary.

Long a major favourite with Dutch, Scandinavians and other Europeans because of its nightlife and fab beaches it is yet to be discovered in the UK. Especially this year when Europe and the Med are hurting anyone with pounds in their pocket, this is a great place to go to guarantee a cool time at cooler prices

Season is from beginning of June to end August and, regret, because of popularity, we can only usually take bookings for whole weeks (minimum 5 nights) and for groups - not for individuals or couples only. Flights are easy - loads of options to Budapest and we arrange transfers to the coast

Masses of acitivities, in and out of the water, and the main attractions at night are the restaurants with really great prices and all-night clubs. Then just laze the day away on great beaches with good swimming conditions. For the active, apart from water sports, there are quad bikes, buggies and paintball all at prices much better tan the UK
