Loved-up couples don't have the monopoly on Paris in spring. Directline Citybreaks has put together a deal to coincide with the Pavillon des Antiquaires in the Jardin des Tuileries where 80 French and international exhibitors sell their wares in a 5,000sq metre tent (March 28-April 1, pavillonartfair.com) - perfect for a girlie weekend or late Mother's Day treat.

Two nights from March 30 at the très chic Hotel A, just off the Champs Elyseés, cost £259pp including Eurostar. The antiques fair costs €11.
