VALENTINE’S Day can be a nightmare for couples – with loved-up people everywhere, it’s hard to feel like you’re the special ones.
So for those who are looking to get away from the crowd, we’ve found some romantic boltholes that you can book for a break away from everyone else.
All of the properties we’ve picked are located in the UK, so there’s no need to fuss with flights – especially if you’re thinking of booking it as a surprise.
And at the time of publishing, they’re all available to book on Valentine’s Day.
So from a cabin in Devon to a lighthouse cottage in Argyll and Bute, here are the loveliest places to stay this Valentine’s Day:
Country cottage, Parwich – £27.79 per person
This spacious cottage in Derbyshire is the perfect bolthole for two, especially those who want to take advantage of the fact that it’s near the Peak District.
There’s an open fire for you to snuggle up by and it’s just a short walk to the village pub for a Sunday roast.
Stay for a whole week to get the best value – it starts from £389 for seven nights, working out to be £27.79 per person a night.
Village hideout, High Bickington – £31.86 per person
For an escape to the country, try this village hideout in Herefordshire.
It will be too cold to use the pool but for those who can’t wait to explore the countryside, there are plenty of lovely walks nearby.
It’s cheapest when you book a whole week – starting from £446 for seven nights, or £31.86 per person a night.
Island lighthouse, Davaar – £52.50 per person
For a truly secluded pad for two, book this lighthouse cottage on the island of Davaar, off the coast of Argyll and Bute.
You’ll get the entire island to yourself and the views are simply stunning.
The cottage costs £105 a night (for a minimum of two), which works out to be £52.50 per person.
Treehouse retreat, Claddach Vallay – £69 per person
This treehouse retreat in the Outer Hebrides has the best of both worlds – it offers forest views that stretches right out to the beach.
You can relax in front of the wood burning fire while stargazing at night, and there’s even the possibility of spotting Northern Lights.
You have to stay a minimum of three nights, but there’s a discount for longer stays, with each night costing £138 – or £69 per person.
Highland hideaway, Oban – £89.50 per person
If you’re looking for a sea-view hideaway without the crowds, this could be it.

Stays start from £179 a night, working out to £89.50 per person if split between two.
Forest cabin, Gartmore – £98.50 per person
This cosy cabin in the woods might look like it’s in the forests of California but it’s actually located in Stirling in Scotland.
You’ll be surrounded by nature as it’s located in a national park – perfect if you want to soak up the atmosphere in the outdoor bath.
Nightly rates for the property start from £197 per night (for a minimum of two), which works out to be £98.50 per person.
We’ve also found some great holidays abroad for less than £100 per person.
