Escape to Brighton this Valentine’s day and treat your loved one to the ultimate short break.

Pack the presents in your weekend bag this Valentine’s day and treat your partner to the perfect romantic break in Brighton, City by the Sea. Boasting beautiful boutique hotels, luxury spas and romantic restaurants Brighton has all the ingredients you’ll need for the perfect Valentine’s celebration.

Start your trip by checking in to one of Brighton’s famous hotels, choose from the opulence and luxury of the 5* De Vere Grand, the boutique decadence of Drakes or the relaxed luxury of Hotel Una - to name just a few.

If you can tear yourself away from the luxury of your hotel room, Brighton is a haven for shoppers. In the independent North Laine area you are sure to find a unique gift for your loved one. The twisting alleyways of the Lanes boast an array of jewellery shops in case you are tempted to pop the question! Or if you have already set a date then visit Simultane for a truly unique wedding dress.

Take a break from shopping and visit the Bar du Chocolat, around the corner from Choccywoccydoodah, a decadent chocolate café, ideal for snuggling up together over a hot cup of melted chocolate.

After all that retail therapy and exploring the two of you will need to relax, and what better way then with a romantic spa experience for two at The Treatment Rooms? The Romance Ritual includes candles and soft music while two therapists work on both of you to bring balance and harmony. Starting with a full body massage to ease tired and tense shoulders completed with an aromatherapy facial with pressure point massage on the face and scalp.

Now relaxed and rejuvenated treat yourself to a sumptuous dinner. At One Paston Place, the intimate surroundings are ideally suited for a romantic tryst. Savour the delicate flavours of dishes such as pan-fried Gressingham duck supreme with chestnut velouté, duck confit tortello and chestnut honey before heading back to your hotel and continuing the romance alone.
