Default Recommend me... a weekend away

Right, I'm thinking over a weekend away with the Mrs sometime in the next couple of months. What I'm ideally looking for is a nice country pub somewhere that does B&B, decent bar meals and a good pint and is within approx 100 miles or so of West Yorkshire as I don't want to have to travel miles to get there. Somewhere were we can go for a pleasant walk (not huge distances) and there are a few nice places to visit round about.

I'm also after ideas for location. I've been to both the dales & the lakes quite a bit over the years, so those are out as I fancy a change.

Any suggestions?

Good thinking Mr Wilky. Found a nice looking place in a village just outside Durham. 12 ensuite rooms, selection of real ales and a decent looking restaraunt. Plenty of options of things to do round there, and only £100 for 3 nights b&b.

It ain't a surprise as we've been trying to decide between us but she loves me anyway.

Some friends stayed at this one

http://www.innkeeperslodge.com/lodgedetail.asp?lid=32 which I believe is near to Durham????? They both were really satisfied with the room and the food.

Hope you have a great time
