If you're looking for a romantic destination to celebrate an anniversary, or to sweep someone off their feet, then here are some great ideas to think about before booking.

Paris

It might be a bit of a cliche but a trip to Paris is one of the most romantic places you can go for a romantic break. Dine by the Eiffel Tower, walk hand-in-hand along the Seine River, or visit the Wall of Love to get all loved up.

The top romantic restaurants in Paris include Le Jules Verne and Les Ombres, where many people have popped the big question to their loved one. If you really want to go to a lot of effort then you could even go on a hot air balloon ride to see Paris from the sky!

Northern Lights

A trip to see the Northern Lights is a unique and once in a lifetime kind of experience and perfect for a short holiday whether it's with your long-term other half or a new partner. One of the best places to see the Northern Lights is Tromso in Norway.

Perfect for spending some quality time together as a couple, romantic ways to experience the Northern Lights include staying in floating lodges, reindeer sledding and relaxing in a hot spring with a glass of fizz in your hands.

Giant's Causeway, Northern Ireland

A trip to Giant's Causeway at sunset offers a spectacular view that will set the tone for a very romantic date. Take a clifftop walk along this famous Heritage Site and maybe take a picnic along whilst you wait for the sun to set. Just over an hour's drive from Belfast, Giant's Causeway is one of the most picturesque areas of Northern Ireland.

Alternatively, if you're flirting with a new love interest, Badoo tells us all about Belfast's historic center and traditional pubs, while the site itself is a great place to meet new people in the area - who you can then take on a romantic tour of the Irish city.

Amalfi Coast, Italy

If you are aiming to make a really big impression and want to find some of the most stunning scenery in the world then hop on a plane to Naples and head down to Italy's Amalfi Coast. You will fall in love with this enchanting part of the world, with Positano, Amalfi and Ravello very popular towns in the area with nothing short of amazing views.

You are only a short boat trip from the lovely island of Capri if you fancy a day trip, and you can easily get a train to Pompeii from Sorrento. There are some great hiking trails too. You could even take a cooking class together and learn how to cook the Italian way!
