Short break suggestions after bereavement

[Trumplosttheelection]

So I just lost my grandma and my mum and dad are bereft. They lived close by for their whole married life. It's a shattering blow although we have been very blessed and she was 98, nearly 99.

I am hoping Covid will do one and I can take them away for a couple of days later in the year.
Where would be fantastic? I want to go somewhere truly lovely. Will consider all budget options.
Definitely primarily country based. Not a city break.

They like the Cotswolds. They are Midlands based so most places are accessible.

Please share your favourites. I would like to be able to dream,

A hotel with lake views in the Lake District. We’ve stayed at Holbeck Ghyll Country House and Lodore Falls Hotel.

Thanks. That's not a bad shout. I don't think they've been to the Lakes all that much.

Lynton/ Lynmouth are lovely if you want the sea.

There's some good hotel suggestions for the Lake District on this thread www.mumsnet.com/Talk/uk/4161432-Another-Place-in-Lake-District
Is there anywhere that would bring back nice memories for them,e.g. Places they went on holiday as children, or when first married?

@emmathedilemma good point, the cotswolds I think. Perhaps will just go with that. North Devon sounds great but perhaps a little far

North Wales for me its very easy to to the sea and mountains in a weekend
Good ideas here

Just a thought, make the journey part of it
Oswestry for Breakfast
Bala for lunch
Barmouth for Dinner.

Hi zip, sorry to hear your sad news.
We are midlands based too and often pop to the Cotswolds for the night. We actually stayed in a premier inn last time in Chipping Norton (I think). It was super cheap and super handy!

The other place we visited last year was Oxford and we had a lovely time there too
