Accompanied by the major cities of Southampton, Portsmouth and Winchester, a coastline stretching from Lymington across the Solent to Hayling Island and an abundant mass of National Parks, all lovers will be spoilt for choice on the most romantic day of the year.

Either you require a luxurious weekend break; Hampshire possesses an abundant supply of quirky and classic hotels and accommodation. If you’re feeling nautical and desire some splendid isolation why not try Solent Forts, but if you wish to be in a snug timeless country manor why not opt for the plush Lime Wood Hotel in the heart of the New Forest - winner of the Telegraph Ultratravel awards 2016.

In the event you should prefer a day trip with your partner, the county continues to keep on giving. Country Pubs and restaurants girdle Hampshire. Those who love food will love the historic city of Winchester which offers a vast array of resturants catering for all crusines.

For those who fancy a tipple, look no further as our county is home to countless vineyards, distilleries and breweries. Laverstoke is the go to destination for gin couples, the official residence of the Bombay Sapphire distillery offering cocktail masterclasses and a tour of the world famous distillery with complimentary drinks included. But if gin isn’t your go to beverage, why not opt for a tour and wine tasting session accompanied with fresh strawberries at Hambledon Vineyard home to award winning English sparkling wine.

Should you yearn to be in the glorious outdoors during Valentines Day, the county has an endless supply of scenic and romantic walks notably in Hampshire’s South Downs national park which was a contender in The Guardians 20 great country walks.

Although country walks are essential for any amorous two, the lush Hampshire countryside also has a patch for thrill seeking couples. With Go-Ape in the Itchen Valley country park and the aqua park at the New Forest Waterpark these choices are a tremendous alternative for the fairly odd couple who want to indulge in an unusual Valentines Day tradition.
