Head to Scotland for a romantic break

Those looking to head away for Valentine's Day may want to consider Scotland.

Scotland could be the perfect destination for those hoping to go away for Valentine's Day.

According to VisitScotland, the country is perfect for a romantic getaway as it is where St Valentine's resting place is located and is also a popular wedding destination for celebrities.

Its spectacular scenery, culture, food and drink also make it particularly suitable for a Valentine's Day holiday, the tourism board states.

Some ideas for those travelling to Scotland for February 14th include visiting the 13th century Dalhousie Castle Hotel in Bonnyrigg, where lovers can arrange to have an engagement or wedding ring flown in by a tawny owl for a proposal or marriage ceremony.

Gleneagles in Perthshire also offers the opportunity to get romantic against the backdrop of the beautiful Scottish countryside, while a trip to the Balmoral Spa in Edinburgh could also help to set the mood on the most loved-up day of the year.

Travel insurance may be a good idea for a Valentine's break to Scotland - especially for those taking expensive engagement or wedding rings with them.

Other romantic destinations include the Seychelles, Bath and Buenos Aires, according to Hotels.com.

Even if you're travelling within the UK, holiday insurance from Direct Travel Insurance is still a sensible purchase as the expense of dealing with issues on a holiday can be costly in any country.
