Romantic Hideaway ideas needed (not abroad)

[fairyfly]

I have been given the responsibility of booking a hotel for next weekend for my boyfriend and i. I have not been away with a man for such a long time so want it to be really special. Also not at a crazy price. Any ideas?

Thanks all

this is meant to be really romantic, have heard of it but not been

omg i have to stay there, i bet it is booked out for months, thanks frnechgirl

FF it does not open until May 1st

oops, sorry about that FF, but print it out and leave for your boyfriend as a subtle hint for another time....

ahhhh ok, thANKS mADAME, i really will try and go though

will do french girl

Hi FF - glad to hear you are still all loved up!

Crabwell manor is a beautiful place with the most enormous baths!!!

Just the thing to get you in the mood for .............. a very tasty...........dinner

Have been here and it's lovely , though not as romantic as the Onion Store I think.....

Frenchgirl, Maidstone is a bit more than 3 hours from manchester!

(Place looks v nice though...)

by the way, the Ringlestone is really in the countryside, hidden away, which is lovely....

JanH, in my mind, geography is only a detail
am just reminiscing good times with dh........ sigh

OOh Frenchgirl - that is very close to me - so will definately have a go at enticing DH away for a weekend sometime

Not going to let these newly together folks like FF have all the fun

FF
