Drop all the stuff that doesn’t matter, and take that person or those people that matter the most, to a place where all there is, is you and them. And all the time in the world to remember who you are together.

Some spaces were made for two. Watch a movie together at the outdoor cinema, sit by the chiminea under the tree canopy or melt together in the hot tub. When it gets cooler, retire inside, where nature gives way to Moroccan-themed extravagance – and snuggle by wood burner crackle.
Want to feel like the only two people in the world? Might be time to visit At the Pond, where there’s nothing but your undivided attention. And a wild swimming pond. And a bathtub sunk into the deck. And a steam room. And an outdoor fireplace. Just those things.
You can’t possibly go wrong with a freestanding stone tub, in its own bath house. Not when it’s big enough for two to settle into and watch a film on the screen. End the night with a glass of something chilled, overlooking the Somerset Levels.
If the picture didn’t grab you, we just don’t know what will. This pair of roll-top baths are screened away from view and face the hillsides as they roll into each other into the horizon. You could explore Dartmoor and the Devon Coast nearby, or, more likely, revel in guiltless bubbles.
Go with the flow at The Perigord Treehouse. Time your breaths to the sighing of the breeze through the branches as your personal instructor guides you in a bespoke yoga session on the deck of a treehouse. Be more in touch with you, and more importantly, your partner.
Can’t agree on what you want? Pumla’s perfect, Half yurt, half cabin, It’s the best of both worlds. What you will agree on however, is how to spend the time. And that’s making the most of the chocolate fondue experience pack. Or the fabulous outdoor bath. Definitely not both at the same time though.
Chatan is swaddled in private forest deep in the Exe Valley, with 300 acres to explore. Take forest strolls together, spotting wildlife and finding streams and ponds dotted about. Night will fall, and you’ll slide into the hot tub on deck and gaze up at a blanket of stars.
There’s a natural order to time at Love in the Round. Finish your dinner at the outdoors feasting table and let your wine rest in the stream to cool, whilst you take an outdoor shower, built for two. From there, take your crisp bottle to the four-poster bed – and well. You can take it from there.
Reconnecting with your partner? You don’t need anything getting in the way of ‘you’ time. You’ve got the option for ‘sunupper’ breakfasts or ‘sundowner’ dinners to be delivered. So you can focus on the magic – like watching sunset from ‘The Crator’ – a level picnic spot with far-reaching views.
It’s not just the name that conjures fairytales, spot this cabin in the woods, and you’ll be thinking happily ever afters. Amongst the Cumbrian Mountains, this space is your very own magical retreat, where the cauldron is a wood fired hot tub, and the best ingredients are you and a loved one.
