The WTP > CW suggestion is a good one - plenty of options for you; East Coast America/Canada would work too.

She's not quite in the zimmer frame yet! She's only in her 50's. Whilst she does love city getaways and exploring places, I was really thinking of a relaxing holiday - just de-stressing by the pool/beach in the sun. We were thinking April/May time - though obviously trying to avoid the school holidays.

I'd also like to re-emphasise the 'cheap' aspect, as this trip would be for three - myself, my mum and my sister too. I do realise the request is a bit 'moon-on-a-stick'y, just really throwing it out there to see what the great minds of FT can come up with.
