To go away for a few days………. Alone……?

I’m currently off sick from work with stress and total burnout. Huge stress and anxiety and so bloody exhausted. Im not depressed, just a bit broken and done. Time out and rest is what is needed and what I’m getting.
Doing this at home is fine but I’d really like to just have a few days alone. Or alone with the dog.
Don’t have small dependent children and DH is fabulous and doing everything he normally does. Which makes me feel kind of guilty for wanting a few days away because he’d still be doing work and carrying on carrying on. is it mean to go away for a bit? If it was anyone else thinking this I’d tell them to do it. But it feels a bit wrong. Like home rest isn’t good enough.

and if I go where to? I want space and big skies and air and peace. And cheap because sick pay is a bit basic.

Go to the beach. Premier Inn is cheap mid-week and you can get some with sea views. Have an overnighter, order yourself a take away, and watch TV while lying in bed.
