10 Romantic Places in England
Bath
If you’re looking for a romantic getaway with a touch of history, charm, and plenty of relaxation, Bath in Somerset is calling your name!
This gorgeous city in Southwest England is famous for its stunning Georgian architecture and its legendary Roman baths. Bath has been all about the art of unwinding ever since the Romans turned its natural hot springs into a thermal spa way back in the 1st century AD—and it’s still the place to go when you need to recharge.
While you’re there, a visit to the Thermae Bath Spa (Britain’s only natural thermal spa) is an absolute must! It makes for a wonderful opportunity to soak in the beautiful open-air rooftop pool and take in the incredible views of the city.
After you’ve indulged in Bath’s spa heritage, it’s time to explore. Stroll through the stunning Bath Abbey, take a romantic walk along the iconic Pulteney Bridge, and visit the Jane Austen Centre to learn about one of England’s most beloved authors, who once called Bath home.
With its cobbled streets, honey-coloured buildings, and slower pace of life, Bath is the ultimate destination for couples looking to unwind, reconnect, and soak up some history.
Cambridge
When you think of Cambridge, the city's world-renowned university might be the first thing that pops into your head. But trust me, this magical city has so much more to offer than just academic brilliance!
Only a 1.5-hour drive from London, Cambridge looks like it’s been plucked straight from the pages of a fairy tale. Picture lush green scenery, cobbled streets, and jaw-dropping architecture—it’s the kind of place that feels effortlessly romantic.
Spend your day wandering hand in hand through the city’s enchanting streets, soaking up sights like the majestic Great St Mary’s Church and the iconic King’s College Chapel. For a cultural twist, pop into one of the world-class museums, or keep things simple with a picturesque riverside stroll.
And here’s the best part: Cambridge is affectionately known as the ‘Venice of the UK,’ thanks to the River Cam that flows through the city. What better way to turn up the romance than by going punting? Glide along the water, take in the dreamy views, and enjoy a moment of pure serenity with your partner.
If you’re after a romantic weekend full of charm and beauty, Cambridge has all the ingredients for an unforgettable getaway.
Cornwall
Nestled in the far southwest corner of England, Cornwall is a dreamy escape that feels worlds away from the everyday hustle and bustle. Known as the ‘Cornish Riviera,’ it’s famous for its golden sandy beaches, charming fishing villages, and picturesque seaside resorts.
Temperatures in Cornwall in the summer can reach up to 20°C, and if there is a heatwave even into the 30s. That’s practically tropical for the UK! It begs the question if there is any need to go abroad with temperatures like that?!
But Cornwall isn’t just about sun, sea, and sand. It’s steeped in culture and history too. At its most south-westerly tip lies Land’s End, one of the UK’s most iconic landmarks. Then there’s the enchanting Minack Theatre, an open-air theatre perched on dramatic Cornish cliffs. If you’re lucky enough to catch a show at sunset, it doesn’t get more romantic than that!
While you’re there, make sure to explore the stunning historic town of St Ives, where you can hit the surf or simply soak up the artistic atmosphere. Don’t miss the magic of Tintagel Castle, the lush beauty of The Lost Gardens of Heligan, or the fairytale-like St Michael’s Mount, which bears a striking resemblance to Mont Saint-Michel in France.
Cornwall may be small, but it’s absolutely packed with charm, beauty, and romance. Whether you’re exploring its iconic landmarks or simply strolling hand in hand along its idyllic beaches, Cornwall is the perfect place for a romantic getaway you won’t forget.
Dorset
If you’re dreaming of an escape with breathtaking coastal views, Dorset in Southwest England should be top of your list!
Famous for its stunning Jurassic Coast, a 95-mile stretch of coastline that’s been named a UNESCO Natural World Heritage Site, Dorset is a true gem. With its dramatic rock formations, geological wonders, and jaw-dropping scenery, it’s the kind of place that’ll leave you and your partner in awe.
One spot you absolutely can’t miss is Durdle Door, an ancient limestone arch that juts out into the sea. It’s one of the most iconic and photographed landmarks in the UK—perfect for snapping a romantic picture together! Just a short drive away, you’ll find the charming Lulworth Cove, another must-see spot that’s ideal for a leisurely stroll or a cosy picnic by the water.

Whether you’re exploring historic landmarks, taking in the coastal beauty, or simply relaxing together in this tranquil setting, Dorset is perfect for couples who love a mix of adventure and charm.
Lake District
The Lake District is one of the UK’s most stunning spots for a romantic getaway, and for good reason! Located in Northwest England, this gorgeous National Park is packed with serene lakes, towering forests, rolling hills, and quaint villages that look straight out of a postcard.
Spend your days exploring the natural beauty of the area—take a walk around one of the many picturesque lakes, hike to a secret waterfall, or visit some of the area’s enchanting castles. If you’re into a bit of adventure, there’s also a whole range of watersports to try.
Then, after a day of exploring, what better way to wind down than by heading to a cosy local pub for a drink and some hearty comfort food? Whether you're toasting by the fire or enjoying a pint in a charming beer garden, it’s the perfect way to end a day of adventure.
For couples who love nature and crave a peaceful retreat away from busyness, the Lake District is the ultimate escape.
London
If you're a city lover who thrives on the buzz of urban life, then London is the ideal spot for a romantic city break. Whether it’s the vibrant atmosphere or the endless things to do, this iconic city has something for every couple.
From world-class museums to unforgettable theatre shows, historical landmarks, and quirky activities, London never fails to impress. But if you're after something a little more romantic, there’s plenty of magic to be found too.

If the weather's good, you can always pack a picnic and enjoy some downtime in one of London’s stunning royal parks—perfect for a chilled afternoon with your other half.
Whatever your idea of romance is, London is guaranteed to spoil you with options!
Oxford
Much like Cambridge, Oxford is renowned for its prestigious university and quite rightly so, as the university is consistently ranked the number 1 best university in the world. However, there’s so much more to this charming city than its academic reputation!
While you’re in Oxford, you may as well take the time to explore the University of Oxford. The jaw-dropping gothic architecture of the university buildings makes you feel like you’ve stepped into another era. For unbeatable views of the city, head to the University Church of St Mary the Virgin and climb to the top. Trust me, the view is worth it!
Oxford’s also home to some seriously cool museums, plus the stunning Blenheim Palace is just 30 minutes away. If you’re after something a bit more chilled, why not try punting down the River Cherwell? It’s a relaxed and super romantic way to see the city from a different perspective.
And if all of that hasn’t convinced you yet, Oxford is one of the UK’s top 50 most aesthetically pleasing destinations for a staycation. So, whether you’re into history, culture, or just enjoying the stunning surroundings, you can’t go wrong with a visit to Oxford.
Peak District
Ready to escape to the countryside? The Peak District National Park in Central England is the perfect place to disconnect, unwind, and soak in some seriously stunning scenery. Think expansive valleys, misty moorlands, and all the fresh air you could ever need.
There’s no shortage of things to do here! You could take a cable car up to the Heights of Abraham for epic views, walk the Monsal Trail or the dramatic Mam Tor Ridge, or even venture into the incredible natural caverns. For a slower pace, explore the charming villages of Edensor, Castleton, and Bakewell – or, if you fancy a bit of pampering, head to the spa town of Buxton.
If you’re a fan of classic romance, follow in the footsteps of Mr Darcy and Elizabeth Bennet by visiting Chatsworth House. And don’t miss the beautiful Haddon Hall, a stunning manor house that’ll make you feel like you’ve stepped back in time.
When the sun sets, the Peak District transforms into the perfect stargazing spot. So, grab a couple of blankets, snuggle up under the stars, and see if you can spot a shooting star or two. It'll be an evening to remember!
The Cotswolds
Tucked away in the heart of England, the Cotswolds is an absolute dream for anyone craving a romantic escape. Spanning six counties, with most of it in Gloucestershire and Oxfordshire, this beautiful region is home to some of the most scenic landscapes in the UK including lush, rolling hills, idyllic thatched cottages, and charming tea rooms – basically, everything you’d want for a quintessentially English getaway.
One spot you have to visit is Castle Combe, a tiny village that’s often crowned as one of the prettiest places in the UK. And no trip to the Cotswolds is complete without a visit to Arlington Row in Bibury – a row of adorable stone cottages that could have been plucked straight from a fairy tale. Fun fact: this spot was used in both Bridget Jones’s Diary and Stardust!
Not far from Arlington Row, you’ll find Copse Hill Road in Lower Slaughter (yes, despite its seriously spooky name, it was voted the most romantic street in the UK!). If you can, time your visit to the Cotswolds in summer when the Lavender Fields are in full bloom – it’s the perfect setting for a romantic stroll or picnic with your other half.
With its breathtaking beauty, charming villages, and plenty of cosy spots to explore, the Cotswolds is everything you need for a romantic weekend away.
York
York is one of those cities that’s just begging to be explored, and it's the perfect spot for a much needed break. Situated in Northern England, this stunning city was founded by the Romans way back in AD 71, and is one of the best-preserved medieval cities in the UK.
With its beautiful historical buildings, charming cobbled streets, and winding alleyways, York is an absolute dream for a romantic stroll. Take your time wandering around, admiring the architecture, and just soaking in the atmosphere.
There’s no shortage of things to do in York, either! Walk along the city walls, explore the magnificent 13th-century Gothic cathedral, or hop on a cruise along the River Ouse.
If you fancy a more chilled pace, make sure to visit the old market town of Knaresborough. Just a short drive from York, this picturesque spot is all about stunning scenery, a serene river, and cosy pubs and cafes – perfect for a laid-back day out with your other half.

Whether you’re after adventure, relaxation, or a bit of both, Arran has something to offer every couple. For the adventurous types, you can climb to the top of the island’s highest peak, Goatfell, try your hand at golf, or dive into some thrilling water sports like paddleboarding or sea-kayaking.
If you’re in the mood for a bit of history and culture, make sure to visit Brodick Castle, Lochranza Castle, or the Isle of Arran Heritage Museum.

The Isle of Skye is a true gem tucked away in the northwest of Scotland, connected to the mainland by a bridge.

5 Romantic Places in Wales
Pembrokeshire
Located in the southwest of Wales, Pembrokeshire is an absolute gem and a total romantic haven. Surrounded by the sea on three sides and with the Preseli Mountains looming in the distance, this area is known for its breathtaking landscapes and fascinating blend of Anglo-Saxon and Celtic history.
There’s so much to explore here, from the magnificent Pembroke Castle to walking along the stunning Pembrokeshire Coastal Path. You can even wander around St Davids, the smallest city in the UK, or soak up the charm of the picturesque seaside town of Tenby. If you're into a bit of adventure, why not spot some wildlife on a sea safari or get your heart racing with some water sports?
But, if you’re after something extra special, pack a romantic picnic and head to Barafundle Bay – one of the most beautiful beaches in the UK. With its golden sands and crystal-clear waters, it’s the perfect spot to unwind and enjoy some quality time with your partner.
Brecon Beacons
If you're after a romantic getaway with a dash of adventure, Brecon Beacons is the place to be! This stunning national park in Wales spans a whopping 520 square miles of some of the most beautiful Welsh scenery you can imagine.
Whether you’re a seasoned hiker or someone who enjoys a more relaxed pace, the park has something for everyone from easy strolls through woodlands or a challenging trek up Pen y Fan, the highest peak in South Wales. The Brecon Beacons is just a giant playground for outdoor lovers – whether you're into water sports, cruises, horse-riding, or even tandem paragliding.
The area is famously known as ‘the UK’s waterfall country’, and if you're up for some exploring, the ‘Four Falls’ walk is a must-do. It’s a circular route, taking around three hours, that’ll take you to some of the most stunning waterfalls in the region.
But here’s the real magic: Brecon Beacons is an International Dark Sky Reserve, which means it has some of the clearest night skies in the UK. So, after a day of adventure, all that's left to do is a spot of stargazing. It doesn’t get more romantic than that!
Lake Vyrnwy
Nestled on the edge of Snowdonia National Park, Lake Vyrnwy is a hidden gem that’s perfect for a romantic getaway. Built in the 1880s, this stunning reservoir sits beautifully amidst the Berwyn Mountains, offering breathtaking views at every turn. Whether you’re a nature lover or just want to escape the hustle and bustle, Lake Vyrnwy is a total paradise.
There’s no shortage of things to do here – hike up Snowdon (Wales' highest peak!), cycle around the lake, or try your hand at some water sports. If you're into wildlife, you’ll also find amazing bird-watching opportunities. But if you’re in the mood to just kick back and relax, why not head over to the Lake Vyrnwy Hotel, grab a drink, enjoy the views over the lake, or even treat yourselves to a couple’s massage at the spa?
It’s the perfect mix of adventure and relaxation – what more could you want for a romantic escape?
Llanddwyn Island
If you’re after a slice of romance wrapped up in Welsh legend, then Llanddwyn Island is the spot for you. Located off the coast of Anglesey, this isn’t actually an island (a bit of a misnomer there!), but it sure feels like one when you get there. With its Tŵr Mawr Lighthouse standing proudly as a picture-perfect landmark, and the nearby Old Llanddwyn Chapel adding a touch of history, it’s the ideal romantic escape.
Llanddwyn also boasts the stunning Newborough Beach, where you can take a leisurely stroll along the shoreline while soaking up incredible views of Snowdonia. But it’s not just the scenery that makes this place so special – it’s the romantic backstory tied to Saint Dwynwen, the Welsh patron saint of lovers. Legend has it that Saint Dwynwen, back in the 5th century, set up a convent on the island and prayed for love stories to come true. How’s that for setting the mood?
Every year on 25th January, people celebrate St Dwynwen’s Day, the Welsh equivalent of Valentine’s Day, by exchanging gifts and visiting the island. A perfect excuse for a little extra romance!
Portmeirion
If you were to stumble upon a photo of Portmeirion, you’d be forgiven for thinking it’s somewhere on the Italian coast – especially with its charming Italianate style and pastel-hued buildings. But surprise! This gorgeous spot is right here in the UK.
Portmeirion isn’t your typical village; it’s actually a tourist village with no permanent residents, which just adds to its otherworldly feel. Voted ‘one of Britain’s most beautiful seaside villages’, it’s the perfect place for a romantic getaway that feels a world away from reality.
To experience this magical place, you’ll need to pay an entry ticket but it’s worth every penny. Once inside, you’ll have access to the village, lush gardens, and even stunning beaches. And if you really want to lean into the Italian vibe, why not treat yourselves to a plate of pasta and a scoop of gelato? It’s like a mini trip to Italy, without leaving Wales.
3 Romantic Places in Northern Ireland
County Antrim
County Antrim is one of those places where romance meets adventure, offering a perfect blend of vibrant city life and incredible natural beauty. It’s home to Belfast, Northern Ireland’s capital, and, of course, the iconic Giant’s Causeway, one of the country’s most famous landmarks.
But if you’re after more than just a quick city break, there’s the legendary Causeway Coastal Route – a 195-mile drive that’ll sweep you and your partner through some of the most stunning landscapes in the UK. Along the way, you’ll pass the Carrick-a-Rede rope bridge, the dramatic Gobbins Cliff Path, and the magnificent Dunluce Castle. Oh, and if you’re a Game of Thrones fan, keep your eyes peeled for some filming locations!
The drive itself is part of the magic. With the rugged coastline on one side and lush green hills on the other, you’ll have plenty of time to chat, laugh, and make memories as you stop off at little hidden gems along the way.
County Londonderry
County Londonderry is the perfect partner to its neighbour, County Antrim, and is home to some of the most romantic spots in Northern Ireland.
Kick things off by exploring Londonderry itself, a city steeped in history. The highlight? Ireland’s only fully intact city walls, which are a massive 400 years old! After soaking in the history, head to Castlerock, a picturesque seaside village where you can visit the striking Mussenden Temple, or wander along the breathtaking Downhill Strand and Castlerock beach. If you’re after adventure, lace up your hiking boots and tackle Binevenagh Hill. It’s a bit of a challenge (about a 5-hour hike), but the panoramic views over the Irish landscape are well worth the effort.
For a slower pace, why not enjoy a leisurely, romantic stroll through the serene Roe Valley Country Park? It’s the perfect place to relax, reconnect, and enjoy the natural beauty around you. Whether you're up for an active day or just want to unwind, County Londonderry has a little something for every couple.
The Mourne Mountains
If you're looking for an adventurous getaway, the Mourne Mountains in Northern Ireland should be on your list. This stunning mountain range is not only the highest in Northern Ireland but has also inspired the magical landscapes of C.S. Lewis's Narnia and even Game of Thrones.
If you're the kind of couple who loves a good hike, you're in for a treat. Here, you can take on the Mourne Seven Sevens: a 29km trek over varied terrain, with 2440m of elevation. This is no easy feat—it’ll take you around 10-12 hours to complete, but you’ll summit all seven of the Mourne Mountains' highest peaks. And if you’re lucky enough to catch good weather, get ready to witness some of the most breathtaking views Northern Ireland has to offer.
After all that exertion, make sure you’ve got a cosy place to come back to, so you can rest and relax together. Whether it's a quaint cabin or a charming B&B, nothing beats winding down with your loved one after a day in the great outdoors. It’s the perfect balance of romance and adventure!
