Where would you want to go on holiday when 32 weeks pregnant?

I really want to go away for my birthday, which is at the end of February. However, this time I will be 32 weeks pregnant with my first baby.
More than happy to stay within the UK, last year we went to the Isle of Mull for a "get away from it all" week. I live in Nottingham and think that the journey up there would be too much for me this time. I'm considering Cornwall, as we have family down there.
Normally, I like walking/hiking and wildlife watching. Problem is, I don't really know what I'll feel like doing by the time I'm 32 weeks! And I don't want dh to get bored if all I want to do is slob out and sleep.

Any advice gratefully received

How about Isles of Scilly? Nice and peaceful, a real 'get away from it' location, lots of wildlife. Might be a bit far though.

Oooh, that's a great idea!
Never been but have always wanted to .... would I be OK to fly at 32 weeks? (not "real" flight, is it?) Don't fancy the ferry in Feb - might be a bit rough?

Thanks

South Lakes? Ambleside has excellent restaurants, cafes, shops and a cinema if you want to slob, and loads of easy walks. Plus not too bad a journey from Nottingham.

Helicopter from Penzance is easiest (and cheaper than the plane). I can't find any mention here about not flying when pregnant.
