Where can i go for the weekend with my DH

[jaynel]

Hi its my wedding anniversary at the end of the month and id love to take my husband away for the weekend, some where cheap but good, any ideas??

In the Uk or Europe...or further afield?

Cotswolds

Edinburgh

Bournemouth

Lake District

Give us a clue!!

define 'cheap' and 'good' for us

in the uk, was thinking of brighton but we have been before , then thought clacton but have read there isnt much there. is the Lake District cheap?

lakes can be cheap - how much do you have in mind?

Henley? Not that cheap, actually, but we had a weekend there for our anniversary last year and it was lovely (weather was good, though, which helped).

well nowhere is cheap as it depends where you live and how you will get there!

Tell us

1 - where you live

2 - do you want b&b or hotel

3 - do you enjoy eating out

4 - interests

we live in kent, im not bothered, either b&b or hotel, we like eating out, its just to send sometime together really, with 3 kids and no money its hard. i could probably spend about £150 at the most on acommodation

Bournemouth is lovely and not far away.

We stayed in a Best Western hotel for 2 nights which was great.

Is accommodation important or are you happy with a travelodge?

travelodge is fine, does bournemouth have much to do?

erm well I went with the children and DH so am probably thinking of the oceanarium for the kids rather than romance with DH!!

Will think.

What about 2 nights in Covent Garden in a travelodge?

London! You could get a holiday inn or travel lodge in a more suburban area (cheaper) and tube it into central London. Then you have the best restaurants and bars in the UK, free art galleries and museums and lovely riverside walks . I was down by the South Bank yesterday and was thinking how romantic a walk along there and a trip on the London Eye would have been (I was with a boisterous 4 yr old - so not romantic at all! ).

The Strand House in Winchelsea. DP and I have been a couple of times and it's so romantic. There's a lovely pub across the road or you could go into Winchelsea or Rye for meals. Only problem is it's been taken over since I've been and I think prices are going up by quite abit. Might be abit too expensive now but have a look anyway.

yes i like rye, its lovely, looked at london and it looks really expensive

Kew or Richmond would be nice and close enough to London.

I'm just looking for a cheap hol in easter and came across www.self-catering-cornwall.org.ukThey look nice and CHEAP!
I'll let you know about anything else I find...

Try the Premier Lodge in Southwark in London. Its about 75 pounds a night, and right on the south bank - lovely location.

If you live in kent why don't you go to France or Belgium?? Even just going to Boulogne is lovely - lots of littel restauarants in the old town and plenty of shopping!! Or drive to Bruges. i went to Boulogne again in October and stayed ina cheap hotel which was clean and comfy and central. No luxuries but as I say it was cheap!! It was the hotel faidherbe and is down near the port ona busy main street but we weren't disturbed by an noise. Opposite a lovely bakery. We didn't do the hotel breakfast as it looked a bit manky but wandered into town and sat outside a lovely wee cafe under a patio heater quaffing hot chocolate and croissants! Food was faba nd we stocked up with lots of cheap wine at Cite Europe!
