Nick Drewe, Founder and CEO of Wethrift, said: “Our study shows you can still sweep your sweetheart off their feet without sweeping your bank account clean. From the cobbled streets of Warsaw to the cosy pubs of Dublin, there’s a loved-up adventure waiting that won’t cost an arm and a leg.
“It’s intriguing to see such a mixed bag in our top 10 – whether you’re after a European mini-break or a stateside sojourn, there’s something for everyone. You could find yourselves enjoying pierogi in Poland or sharing a pint in Ireland for less than the cost of a fancy dinner at home.”
