To ask for your recommendations for romantic / sexy hotels in England?

[namechangedemma]

As the title says. I'm trying to find a great hotel for a debauched night away. Something either very romantic or very sexy. Budget up to £500.

Not keen on places with old fashioned patterned carpets and rugs that could be your Great Aunt Florrie's house!

Ideally in the Midlands / East Midlands but further afield could be ok.

Crazy Bear looks like it could be along the right lines but trip advisor reviews are not great.

Please hit me with your tried and tested recommendations.........

This might fit the bill: www.barnsleyhouse.com/ not too far from the Midlands.

Hotel Du Vin chain have some fabulous rooms
And the bathrooms and showers are to die for
There is one in Cheltenham Birmingham York Bristol and a few other places

Thank you - Barnsley House looks fab, as does the Hotel Du Vin I've looked at. Sadly the room I like there isn't available on the day. They've given me hope that what I want is definitely out there though

The Shankly in Liverpool or The Edgebaston in Birmingham

Crazy Bear in Oxfird ain't all that! I would go for Le Manoir aux Quat' Saisons. Rooms are beautiful- especially the tower and if course the food is outstanding.

Crazy bear was full of total liggers that had got a cheap deal from Groupon when we went which puts me off it a bit.
Hassop Hall or East Lodge in Derbyshire. Or The Peacock at Rowsley, also Derbyshire.

I have stayed in Barnsley House, it’s gorgeous and the spa is amazing and very romantic. We had a gorgeous room with a huge copper bath, it was one of the nicest places that I have stayed.

Rudding Park in Harrogate

Thank you! Most of these are on the right lines but fully booked for the date I need...

Another vote for Rudding Park in Harrogate. It's amazing.

The forbury in reading.

Titanic Hotel Liverpool. The rooms are insane.

Paradise Hotel, Blackpool. You won't get sexier.

Recently stayed at hotel du vin in Cheltenham. Shockingly bad. Some nice boutique B&Bs in Bristol tho.

@SignedUpJust4This oh really?! What was bad about it, if you don't mind me asking?

Pendley Manor - Tring, Herts
The Bull Inn - Barton Mills, Suffolk

Both Very romantic, great restaurants too.

And at the swinger hotel someone named downthread!!!

Hotel peliroco in brighton

Hotel Gotham in Manchester

Aphrodites Lodge in Bowness
on Windermere (Lake District)

If you're not bothered about a spa or the surroundings, the Aviator hotel in Farnborough is nice and luxury. We had lovely food and cocktails there.

Another vote for Rudding park we've been twice this year it's amazing. The service is excellent, the spa is beautiful and the food is good too.

The room smelled smokey. There were cigarette burns in the carpet and sheets. The toilet had pubes all over it and when we enquire about switching rooms due to smell (the hotel was practically empty) they were really rude and unhelpful.

These things wouldn't bother me too much at a Premier Inn but you expect a lot better for those prices.

The Pig Inn, Bath

Have a look at Mr & Mrs Smith for your dates.

Cliveden and Le Manoir aux Quat’ Saisons are both pretty special.
