A beautiful UK city has been named one of the most romantic destinations to visit this Valentine's Day. Travel experts atSweepstakes Table have compiled a guide to the UK's most romantic holiday spots.

The casino guidance site says that each city offers its own unique charm for couples looking to celebrate Valentine's Day in style. Included in the top three is Bath in Somerset. Sweepstakes Table said it was perfect for couples who appreciate Georgian elegance and relaxation. The UNESCO World Heritage city is built for romance, with honey-coloured Georgian architecture, particularly along the Royal Crescent and Pulteney Bridge, which creates a stunning setting for romantic strolls. The Thermae Bath Spa offers couples the chance to bathe in naturally warm spring water with rooftop views across the city. The company said Bath has Valentine's appeal with independent boutiques perfect for finding a special gift, while afternoon tea at The Pump Room adds a touch of Regency elegance.

The city's compact size means you can easily explore on foot, discovering hidden courtyards and charming cafés. Evening concerts at the Assembly Rooms or a show at the Theatre Royal round off a perfect romantic day.

Also in the top three is Edinburgh in Scotland, which Sweepstakes Table said is perfect for couples who love history, culture, and breathtaking views. Edinburgh's medieval Old Town and elegant Georgian New Town create a fairytale backdrop for romance.

Stroll hand-in-hand down the cobbled Royal Mile, explore the romantic gardens at Princes Street, or climb Arthur's Seat for panoramic views of the city. The city's countless cosy pubs with open fires offer the perfect spot to warm up after a winter walk.

York in Yorkshire features too as it is perfect for couples who want medieval charm with modern comforts. York's ancient city walls, winding medieval streets, and the magnificent York Minster create an atmosphere steeped in history and romance.

The Shambles, one of Europe's best-preserved medieval shopping streets, is particularly enchanting in the evening when lit by traditional street lamps.

York's chocolate heritage means you can visit chocolate-making workshops or simply indulge in artisan chocolates from the city's independent shops. The abundance of traditional pubs and contemporary restaurants ensures plenty of dining options for Valentine's evening.
