Where is good to go for a city break in the UK? We live in London. We might go to Edinburgh soon too. Where else is good for a romantic getaway that won't break the bank?

me and my boyfriend had a lovely weekend away in the lake district a while back.

We going to go to Brighton as well.
The whole of Northumberland is beautiful though.

So far we have booked Brighton in October and Dublin in January. I think I'm going to go to Edinburgh with friends now instead of with my boyfriend.
Will keep the other suggestions in mind for the future! :d
i went there in jan with my fella. be warned though, it is VERY expensive. the amount i spent in 3 days could have paid for a weekend abroad.
The hotel we booked was like E114 for three nights and it looks really good! Been researching restaurants for my birthday meal as my birthday falls in the middle of the visit and they do look a bit more expensive than London.
We just got back from a summer holiday in Cyprus and we found that was pretty expensive (I think as lots of things are imported to the island).
when we got there though, it was just so so expensive because we have a weak pound.
Well thanks for the warning
i'd recommend buying a dublin pass. thats what me and my boyfriend did and we got to visit lots of places. we also used it to go into the guiness factory every day for our free pint, haha!
You have got to be joking, Dublin is an absolutely shocking city, ugly and overrated. It's not in the UK anyway.
London is the only city in the UK worth discussing, but it's not cheap as we all know.
Hiya I went brighton last sept and just got back from Dublin u will love both these places, another which is really lovely is York, or cambridge very quaint with old buildings and colleges and shopping is super also x
Been in Oxford last night until today but didn't see much - just the pub and the club and mates house.
I know that feeling, i spent over 500 quid on three days in ramsgate...
We could of spent a week in spain
I'm currently living in Leeds and I think it's fucking awesome. Great shopping, almost like a mini London in that aspect. The city centre is very attractive and the nightlife is immense. Loads of good restaurants and bars e.t.c around Headingley. But I reckon York is probably more romantic, I'm going there next wednesday for the day.
