E: 13/02 1-night Romantic stay for 2 at Milestone Hotel, Kensington (written comment)

http://blog.redcarnationhotels.com/your-experiences/win-the-romantic-night-of-your-dreams/

To enter the Competiton:

Write us an account of how you, or your partner, proposed in the comments section below. Or, if neither of you has popped the question yet, give us a description of the most romantic occasion you have shared together. The entry judged to be the best by our Red Carnation panel will win a romantic night at The Milestone Hotel that is sure to be truly, madly, deeply and unforgettably magical.

To Win:

The hotel itself overlooks Kensington Gardens, and William and Catherine’s London residence, Kensington Palace – so you’ll feel like a prince and princess from the moment you arrive. In reception you’ll be given the full red carpet treatment – we’ll welcome you with a single red rose and two glasses of chilled Veuve Clicquot premium champagne, then show you to your splendidly luxurious suite. Here you’ll find a bottle of house champagne waiting for you, along with a dish of delicious chocolate dipped strawberries. Then, in the evening, you’ll be served a sumptuously romantic dinner in Chenestons, our famous fine dining restaurant – a quick glance at a sample menu and you’ll realise just how special an experience this will be! After dinner you’ll enjoy a Romantic Turndown then, when you awaken next morning, you’ll be served a hearty full English Breakfast. :love:

If you can tear yourself away from the hotel (not easy!) you can wander over to Kensington Palace and see for yourself where William and Catherine spend their time when in the capital. On the other hand you might prefer a little shopping. Again, The Milestone is ideally placed – it’s just a few yards from the fabulous stores along Kensington High Street, while Harrods, Harvey Nichols and the boutiques of Knightsbridge are only a short walk in the other direction. Nearby Kensington Church Street offers the widest selection of art and antiques in London, with over 60 dealers, and there’s The Science Museum, The Natural History Museum and The Victoria & Albert Museum are all just 15 minutes away on foot.

Your entry can be as short or long as you’d like and should be submitted in the comment section below – so what more encouragement do you need to “look in thy heart and write”?

Closing date for entry is 13th February 2012. Winner will be announced on 14th February 2012. Entrants must be 18 years or older. Prize valid until 31st January 2013, subject to availability and terms and conditions apply. Black out dates may apply. Dinner includes one bottle of our house wine. Additional drinks are subject to charge.
