Need help
« on: 04 August 2008, 22:19:48 »
August 16th i have been married 5 years, now as part of this i would like to take the good lady away for friday and sat night  ;)

Most of the places i stay are very business orientated, not what i would call weekend getaway places.

Can anyone suggest a nice hotel in an area that will allow us to go out, possibly do a bit of retail therapy, somewhere scenic or that has interesting aspects, if possible a hotel that is something interesting as well

My budget is up to £300 for the accomodation for the two nights, i don't get to spend a lot of time with her so i like to make an event like this a bit special

I have been looking at the south west/wales even up as far as cheshire (theres a real nice place called Stanneylands that i have stayed at in the past)

cheers  :y

On that budget you might even be able to get a romantic city break in Europe  :-? :-? :-?

trust me Mike it was done with some careful thought as i aware that some SWTSMBO's do get on here.

My thinking was we have people all over the country on here, nothing better than local recommendation  :y

My wife is from your part of the world as well

Chester way is good for retail therapy - Cheshire Oaks on the M53 and Chester town centre is rather nice by all accounts.  If you fancy a nice seaside walk, i gather there is actually a very nice bit of the Wirral, right at the end..?
