Romantic Holiday Visits

Looking for some Valentine's Day ideas for places to go? Here's a favorite of mine that you might like to try;

The Horn of Plenty is a beautiful and warm country house nestled in five acres of gardens and orchards. Enjoy its beautifully furnished and superbly converted rooms in the adjacent Coach House, which all have balconies for you and that someone special to enjoy as you overlook the walled garden and beautiful wooded valley. The gardens themselves will delight both of you with their trees, shrubs and quiet sunny nooks. The Horn of Plenty offers couples a tantalising choice of traditional and imaginative cuisine which provide a harmony of taste that graces the palate and adds to the romantic atmosphere.
