Quirky UK holiday ideas for couples

Deepdean Kune Kune in Ross-on-Wye, Forest of Dean

This rural retreat for two offers plenty of time for rest and relaxation amidst the natural tranquility of the Forest of Dean. What makes this location particularly quirky is the neighbours – this barn conversion shares its ground with an array of exotic animals as the owner runs an animal sanctuary. While not available for private viewing, the inhabitants such as zebras, lemurs, wallabies and more are visible from the communal areas.

If you can drag yourself away from the cosy cottage, peaceful scenery and unique surroundings, nearby Ross-on-Wye offers cultural interest and fabulous weekly markets, or you could try out the Forest of Dean Go Ape aerial adventure. At the end of the day, enjoy a soak in your private hot tub, or take a dip in the communal swimming pool between April and September.
