Where to go?

Me and the other half have a few days off together in September and want to go away somewhere in either the UK or Europe.
Idealy we'd like somewhere reasonably quiet (not a big city) with some sight seeing. It can be anywhere in the UK or ideally around a six hour drive from Dieppe.
I'd like it to be fairly romantic too as its our first break together.
Suggestions please.

    Strasbourg is quite nice and about 5-6 hours from Dieppe
    Change is inevitable, except from a vending machine.

    Thanks - at the moment we're looking at Carnac and Vannes although that'll probably change 20 times before we go!
