Looking for a break in September for 30th Birthday - Any ideas?

Hi,

I am looking for somewhere to go/stay for my boyfriends 30th birthday weekend. I have a Fri & Mon off work from 11-14 Sept and willing to travel a couple of hours each way. I did look at center parcs for just the two of us but the villas/apartments are 300+ pounds per weekend. Any ideas welcome. Thanks :o

    Hi - live in Gloucestershire so somewhere a couple of hours max from there. Would ideally like a romantic weekend away with OH, don't have a big budget I am afraid, only a couple of hundred pounds at most for accommodation. Any help would be greatly received.

    With lodges.The lodges are beautiful some with hot tubs etc I have priced Keldy
    Forest in yorkshire for my 30th in november and it worked out at 179 for hire of
    The lodge for 3 nights fri to sun.

    Thanks 'Thebaileys' for that idea I will have a look at their site. If anyone else has any other suggestions please let me know. I was thinking of perhaps going to Chester for the weekend.
