weekend getaway
Brief leisure excursion
A weekend getaway is a short recreational trip, typically lasting two or three days, taken to escape routine: We booked a weekend getaway to the coast.
The phrase implies leisure and relaxation rather than business travel, often to destinations within driving distance of home.
