dh and I want to go somewhere really lovely for a weekend for our wedding anniversary this year (end sept). We have rather neglected our anniversary for a few years since dd has been around, we have had a bit of a tough time recently which we have come through and have really sorted out and we are madly in lurve . We would really love to go somewhere relaxing and beautiful and stay somewhere small and intimate and fab. Nothing too designery really, maybe with nice antiques and big snuggly bed and a balcony with a view...

All suggestions welcomed...

Hmm, yes, thought that as pressed post

moondog · 12/06/2007 23:42

Possibly.
But if shagging and eating will it matter.
You don't strike me as one of those hearty rambling types who sets off with huge plastic encased map swinging from neck and ridiculouis Nordic sticks.

moondog · 12/06/2007 23:43

Yes.
Apparently most visitors to Lake Districk walk about 100 yards max. Would vouch that it is similar here.

I know you want a city but have you thought of Portmeirion in North Wales?? So romantic its untrue.

Chester very nice too.

Grosvenor.
