Romantic

If you want to take it easy then Woodbridge offers the perfect opportunity for couples wanting to get away from it all and relax.

The Ufford Park Hotel has a delightful health spa with a mineral grotto, steam room, soft sauna, ice fountain and various treatments. Ideal pampering before or after the Woodbridge Wander and/or a riverside or beachside stroll, particularly just before sunset.

Alternatively you can search through the oils, creams and powders at the Windmill Natural Health Centre, or the town centre’s Natural Healing Centre or The Rainbow Apothecary.

Woodbridge contains a plethora of independent boutiques and shops offering a bewildering array of retail opportunities as well as plenty of cafes and coffee houses, where you can indulge in a bit of surreptitious people watching.

On the other hand you could explore some of the many fascinating private art galleries and show rooms, dotted in and around Woodbridge, looking for a bargain or a memento of your trip.

Just as diverting is a river trip on the Deben, from Waldringfield, taking in the beautiful rolling riverside country, wildlife and picking up a bit of local history.

At the end of the day there is nothing more romantic than a meal for two in one of the extensive variety of local pubs, hotels, tea rooms, and restaurants. It’s up to you to choose either a lively atmosphere in one of the local pubs with perhaps some entertainment, or maybe taking in a film or show, or dining quietly, whilst gazing contemplatively out of a window or happily across candles at one another.
