What's on offer? The stunning Beach House at Burgh Island bills itself as 'the sexiest hotel room in the UK' - although all that sexiness didn't deter Agatha Christie from using it as a writer's retreat back in the 1930s. Wallis Simpson and Edward VIII were also regular visitors. All rooms at Burgh Island are equipped with bespoke toiletries, chocolates and wi-fi but no TV - so distractions are kept to a minimum while you enjoy your you-and-me time.
What's the price? From £665 per night.

What's on offer? Roll up! Roll up! This spacious retreat, set in the corner of a pretty five-acre meadow in the Herefordshire Hills, is actually a converted circus wagon.

And its name suggests, this is a prime spot for star-gazing - which is why your cabin comes equipped with a telescope.
