What many don\u2019t realise is that there are plenty of places throughout the UK that are very romantic indeed. They\u2019re suitable for all sorts of couples, from newlyweds celebrating their honeymoon, to young couples off on their first break away together. Here\u2019s a selection of some of the top destinations in the UK for couples. They\u2019re quite varied, but what they all have in common is that they offer memorable experiences that are best enjoyed with your significant other.<\/p>\n<h2>1.\u00a0\u00a0 \u00a0The Lake District<\/h2>\n<p>Though it\u2019s exceedingly popular, the Lake District is large enough that you can visit at peak times and still get plenty of peace and quiet. It\u2019s a top destination for couples thanks to its captivating landscapes that are regarded as some of the most picturesque in the whole country, plus its plethora of outdoor activities. Whether you prefer staying active or taking it easy, you\u2019ll find plenty of memorable activities you and your significant other can enjoy together, from bonding on challenging hikes or taking it easy on a relaxing boating trip out on one of the many scenic lakes for which the district is named. It\u2019s ideal for couples who enjoy spending time outdoors together.<\/p>\n<h2>2.\u00a0 Bath<\/h2>\n<p>The spa town of Bath is decidedly historic, with an impressive collection of centuries-old buildings and a delightful, charming atmosphere. What makes it particularly appealing for couples is the Thermae Bath Spa, a natural spa featuring two pools with pleasantly warm waters rich in minerals &#8211; one is indoors, while the other is up on the building\u2019s rooftop. As well as enjoying luxuriating in the pools, couples can enjoy a selection of indulgent spa treatments (at extra cost), many of which are designed for two to experience simultaneously. Bath has been recognised as a UNESCO World Heritage Site thanks to its rich architecture, which many couples enjoy discovering on leisurely strolls together.<\/p>\n<h2>3. The Isle of Skye<\/h2>\n<p>This sparsely populated Scottish island is known for its beautiful natural scenery and rugged, unspoiled landscapes. Though it\u2019s slowly becoming more popular with tourists, it\u2019s still quite a peaceful destination to visit, especially if you go off exploring away from the main settlement of Portree. One of the island\u2019s most romantic spots is the Fairy Pools, a series of waterfalls and crystal-clear rock pools that are ideal for a leisurely dip. Visit early on in the morning or later on in the evening for the best chance of having the pools to yourselves.<\/p>\n<h2>4. Llanddwyn Island<\/h2>\n<p>This particular destination isn\u2019t as well known as others on the list, though by no means should it be overlooked. The reason it\u2019s a great place for couples to visit is because it\u2019s the final resting place of St. Dwynwen, the Welsh equivalent of St. Valentine. There\u2019s also its scenic coastline, smattering of ruins, secluded picnic spots and picturesque scenery, all of which make this tidal island well worth a visit. There\u2019s no accommodation on the island itself &#8211; the nearest town of Newborough is two-and-a-half miles inland &#8211; with couples often staying in romantic retreats nearby.<\/p>\n<h2>5. The Isles of Scilly<\/h2>\n<p>This archipelago off the southwest coast of mainland England is a veritable haven for those looking for a romantic getaway. The islands\u2019 hinterlands are reminiscent of the mainland\u2019s, with verdant countryside and gentle hills; the beaches, on the other hand, are a lot more tropical and exotic in appearance than those on the mainland. They\u2019re widely regarded as some of the finest in all of the UK thanks to their fine sands, stunning coastal views and peaceful character. When not strolling along the coast hand in hand, a visit to Abbey Garden is a must for couples: it\u2019s a sub-tropical garden home to all sorts of colourful, exotic plants from around the world.<\/p>\n<h2>6. York<\/h2>\n<p>For those into city breaks, a trip to York should definitely be considered. What makes the city particularly attractive is just how much history there is to be discovered. There\u2019s an impressive collection of monuments showcasing a broad range of architectural styles; many of them are centuries old and have been exceptionally well preserved. Throughout the city\u2019s historic streets and winding passages are all sorts cosy restaurants, bars and cafes to be discovered, not to mention plenty of boutique shops. The city resonates well with couples because it exudes so much charm and character.<\/p>\n<h2>7. The Cotswolds<\/h2>\n<p>While the Three Choirs Vineyards is very much a top romantic destination, the wider area of Cotswolds itself is also not to be missed. What makes this Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty so appealing for romantic breaks is its unspoiled scenery and decidedly picturesque views. It\u2019s characterised by its pretty little villages, rolling green landscapes and laidback atmosphere. A highlight that\u2019s worth mentioning is Bourton-on-the-Water, a charming town known as \u2018the Venice of the Cotswolds\u2019 thanks to its numerous stone bridges crossing the River Windrush. It\u2019s the perfect spot for blissful riverside walks with the one you love.<\/p>\n<h2>8. Harrogate<\/h2>\n<p>For romantic breaks in Northern England, the spa town of Harrogate is a real gem.\u00a0 With ample high end restaurants, elegant architecture and a large park, Harrogate is compact enough to be inviting and easy to explore yet large enough to offer visitors a plethora of attractions.\u00a0 The choice of eateries and shops mean you&#8217;ll never be bored whilst enjoying a couple&#8217;s holiday in Harrogate.<\/p>\n<h2>9. Brecon Beacons National Park<\/h2>\n<p>The Brecon Beacons National Park is one of Wales\u2019 three national parks and is an ideal destination for outdoorsy couples looking to go exploring together. There\u2019s a plethora of activities available here, from hiking and horseback riding, to water sports, mountain biking and more. The park is known for its picturesque natural scenery and its tranquil character. Scattered throughout are quaint, traditional villages and cosy pubs that are hot spots for romantic meals that can be enjoyed after a day spent exploring the park\u2019s idyllic scenery and rugged landscapes.<\/p>\n<h2>10. Edinburgh<\/h2>\n<p>The idea of a bustling city packed with people isn\u2019t everyone\u2019s idea of a romantic destination, but for many couples, Edinburgh is the epitome of romance. It\u2019s very much a cosmopolitan city and is renowned for its thriving arts and cultural scene, while at the same time being steeped in history and heritage. The Royal Mile is the city\u2019s most popular street and is lined with shops, bars, restaurants, cafes and the like; it\u2019s ideal for a leisurely walk hand in hand with your partner, though if you wander off the main street, there are plenty of hidden gems you might come across too.<\/p>\n<p>Wherever you choose to holiday, enjoy browsing through the available options for <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cottagegems.com\/romantic-self-catering\/\">luxurious romantic retreats<\/a> on Cottage Gems.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Many couples looking for a romantic getaway look at places abroad for their holiday together.
