Northumberland
Northeast England’s amazing coastal region must be one of the world’s best-kept secrets. With beaches to rival Western Australia such as Bamburgh and Alnmouth with crashing surf and creamy yellow sand, the Roman Wall, the Farne Islands for seal and puffin spotting, serious castles such as Alnwick and the trendy nightlife and shopping of Newcastle just on the doorstep, you can’t go wrong. Coastal Retreats is a classy collection of dreamy houses scattered around the Northumbrian coast. All interiors are well up to design hotel standards and include a scrumptious welcome hamper on arrival. Glebe Cottage in the tiny hamlet of Tughall Steads is perfect for couples. Alternatively the Plaice in Seahouses has fabulous sea views and a balcony off the bedroom. Smugglers is a new cottage in Beadnell with log burner and lots of contemporary artwork. To up the romance, head to The Treehouse Restaurant at Alnwick Gardens for dinner and indulge in his and her treatments at the Ocean Leisure Centre in Seahouses. Coastal Retreats offers a week at Glebe Cottage from £815.
