Planning Romantic Weekend Breaks on a Budget

Planning Romantic Weekend Breaks on a Budget

Escaping for a romantic getaway doesn’t have to break the bank! You can find plenty of great options for an overnight midweek or weekend break across the UK for less than £100 per person (in some cases, much less).

While weekend breaks that include a Friday or Saturday night can be expensive, you can find plenty of value options for Sunday nights. Choose a location near to home and you can enjoy some well-deserved time away and be home on Monday morning. Midweek dates can also be much cheaper than weekends. Other ways to save include choosing off-peak dates and looking for hotels that are a little more off the beaten track. City centres and prime locations, such as the Lake District, will always command the highest prices, so look a bit further afield to uncover great value.

Don’t forget, there are always deals and offers around. We have some great deals here on SpaSeekers for overnight hotel packages, many of which include spa access and all of which offer superb accommodation and hospitality.

In this guide, we help you to plan a wonderful romantic weekend break in the UK on a budget. We include a selection of UK breaks at different price points, up to £99 per person, to give you an idea of what’s available. We also highlight some of our higher-priced options at our 4 and 5-star luxury spa hotels, for times when you want to splash the cash on an extra special weekend getaway.
