It might not seem so at the moment with the crazy snow-storms, rain and chilling wind, but the UK boasts some of the most gorgeous honeymoon destinations from across Europe. Don’t expect to get the best for a bargain though, while you might not be paying air fares and taxes a UK holiday can be quite a luxury experience! Whatever you’re looking for – be it adventure, culture, amazing views or just some peace and quiet – you can find it right here in the British Isles!
Opting for self-catering will save you a fortune and is much easier here than abroad with all the familiar shops and products available, but you will end up spending your honeymoon in supermarkets and doing the washing up so really think about it before you go down that route.
Beside The Seaside
England’s South Coast has some truly gorgeous beaches. Choose Cornwall for stunning views and surfing with enough ice cream to sink the Titanic thrown in for good measure! There are plenty of quaint cottages and B&Bs to stay in as well as some really top notch hotels.

If you’d rather be more sociable during your honeymoon, head East to Brighton. Packed with glitzy nightlife in the evenings, you’ll also discover Brighton is a city of culture and history by day.
To The Top Of The Hill
While our hills are nothing compared to some parts of the world, you will be hard pushed to find a better honeymoon than being tucked up in a mountain lodge, cuddling your new husband and sitting by a roaring log fire. Choose Snowdonia in North Wales, the Lake District in England or the rugged Highlands of Scotland for a really romantic break. This is a great choice if you live in a city, the forced seclusion of rural life will make your honeymoon an unforgettable experience.

Take the opportunity to explore a new area of the country and you’ll be sure to find lovely little villages and markets, soon forgetting you didn’t even need to go abroad to find them!
Concrete Jungle Where Dreams Are Made
Discovering a new city can be so exciting. Choose a luxury hotel right in the centre, spend your days looking round the shops and museums, your evenings exploring the restaurants and theatres. The great thing about a city break is that you can get as involved as you like. There is always something to do, or you’ll be just as happy staying in and ordering room service.
Bath is a fantastic city to explore, and just a stone’s throw from the rolling hills of the South Coast. Full of history, the Roman Baths are a must-see. Further North you’ll find Manchester lively and exotic, or venture as far as Edinburgh for ghost walks, haggis and bagpipes.
When choosing your honeymoon destination don’t dismiss the UK, there is so much to explore here it seems a shame to miss it all lounging on a beach in Spain! Although, looking out the window now, maybe that would be nice …
