This weekend i am looking at taking a ladyfriend away for sunday night. Leaving early Sunday morning and returning late Monday evening. Ideally within 3 hours of London (train, plan or automobile) door to door. Looking for somewhere we can enjoy the countryside and go for a walk, stay in a decent hotel and get some decent food.
Ideas so far have been
1) Stay at Rick Steins place in Cornwall (too far, about a 5 hour drive)
2) Le Manoir aux Quat'Saisons - fully booked
3) Bristol - visit Cheddar gorge one day and go out sunday night in Bristol
Bristol is currently top of my list, but not really convinced. I would love to go to the lake district but not really viable option for 1 night.
Can anyone recommend a spot of natural beauty we can stay within 2-3 hours of London with decent restaurants nearby
