Best UK breaks for couples

You don’t have to head abroad to wow your other half when the UK is at your fingertips. As locals, we may be quick to dismiss it, but the it is actually full of unlikely romantic destinations that are ideal for a quiet weekend away.

Whisk away your partner to the countryside for a blissful escape. Stunning year-round, the Cotswolds are an obvious choice to fan the flames of love. The Lake District in England, central Scotland and the highlands as well as pretty North Wales… the list of cheap destinations for couples goes on.

If cities are more your thing, why not take a weekend jaunt to medieval Edinburgh, with its romantic cobblestoned streets and historic old town, or to the picturesque university town of Oxford – so much more than a student destination? For lively nightlife, check out Manchester, or Liverpool, while London, one of the world’s great cities for art, food and entertainment, has the lot.

When it comes to holidaying in the UK as a couple, it’s also worth considering additional places to go for the day. Add an extra day or two to your weekend break and take a trip to a neighbouring town or hire a car and journey into the mountains for an unforgettably romantic couple’s holiday. The possibilities are endless.
