From woodland treehouses to romantic beach huts on the coast, we’ve got some amazing minimoon locations across the UK perfect for you.

Over the years minimoons have become more and more popular as a way to set off on a romantic break away post-wedding without the need for going on a plane and the cost that comes with it. Some people opt for doing a minimoon in the UK if they want to just keep their honeymoon local, and others decide to do a shorter break in the UK whilst they save up for their overseas honeymoon later down the line. And with wedding planning often being quite stressful we want to help keep the post wedding planning as stress free as possible with this list of places to go in the UK for a minimoon.
