A romantic Valentine’s escape in the Cotswolds
Valentine’s Day is the perfect occasion to celebrate love and connection, and what better way to do so than with a romantic getaway to the picturesque Cotswolds? Renowned for its rolling countryside, charming villages, and luxurious retreats, the Cotswolds offers an idyllic setting for couples seeking an unforgettable Valentine’s escape. Here’s a guide to planning the perfect romantic retreat, with Cowley Manor Experimental as your dream destination.
Choosing the Perfect Accommodation
For an indulgent and intimate stay, look no further than Cowley Manor Experimental, a stunning 17th-century manor nestled in 55 acres of lush gardens and tranquil lakes. With beautifully designed rooms that merge historic charm with contemporary elegance, couples can enjoy plush bedding, freestanding bathtubs, and breathtaking countryside views. The manor’s whimsical design, inspired by Alice in Wonderland, adds an enchanting touch to your romantic retreat.
A Spa Experience for Two
Pampering and relaxation are essential elements of any romantic getaway, and C-Side Spa at Cowley Manor offers the perfect escape. Couples can unwind in the heated indoor pool, enjoy rejuvenating spa treatments, or relax in the steam room and sauna. Opt for a couple’s massage to truly melt away stress and reconnect in a serene environment.
Savor a Romantic Candlelit Dinner
Dining is an essential part of any romantic getaway, and Cowley Manor’s award-winning restaurant is the perfect setting for a Valentine’s dinner. Overseen by renowned chef Jackson Boxer, the menu features seasonal ingredients, locally sourced produce, and elegant dishes crafted to perfection.
From succulent cuts of beef with rich truffle jus to delicate seafood creations and decadent chocolate desserts, every dish is designed to tantalize the senses. For an added touch of luxury, the restaurant’s Experimental Cocktail Club Cotswolds serves exquisite signature cocktails, ideal for toasting to love.
Romantic Activities in the Cotswolds
Beyond the luxurious stay, the Cotswolds is home to endless romantic activities. Take a scenic countryside walk, hand in hand, through quaint villages like Castle Combe, Lower Slaughter, and Bibury, where honey-colored cottages and cobbled streets create a storybook setting.
For a truly memorable experience, consider a horse-drawn carriage ride through the countryside or a private boat trip on the River Windrush. If you and your partner enjoy history and culture, visit the magnificent Sudeley Castle, a site steeped in romance and home to the tomb of Katherine Parr, Henry VIII’s last wife.
Another option is to explore the Cotswolds’ thriving artisan scene. Visit local wineries and distilleries, where you can sample award-winning English wines and craft gins. A truffle-hunting experience in the surrounding woodlands also makes for a unique and romantic bonding activity.

Make your stay even more special with personalized touches offered by Cowley Manor. Arrange for rose petals on your bed, a bottle of champagne on arrival, or a surprise breakfast in bed to start your day in the most romantic way possible.
