Honeymoon hideout - OK not mountains but you get sea and serenity and the island is quaint and very relaxing - http://www.corblets.alderney.com/

Methinks you are not English ?

If you are or not, you sound as though the Lake District is what you need.

Most beautiful place in England.

In the top left of England, with loads of lakes and loads of mountains (England highest at over 3,000 feet).

Loads of hotels, guest houses and B&Bs at all prices.

Here is one (expensive) hotel, but there are loads of others it that is too much.

I know a lot about the Lake District so if you want to know more just ask.

And to convince you here is just one picture

So if you are not English then let me help you out with how to find our places of mountains, lakes and serenity.

The major places of national beauty in the UK are classed as National Parks. There are 15 of them I think, and you can find out more about them here.

http://www.nationalparks.gov.uk/index/p_visiting.htm

The Lake District is one of them.

I see from another append you are moving to Hull, so other national parks near you would be the North York Moors and the Yorkshire Dales.

Other beautiful areas that are not big enough to be national parks are called Areas of Outstanding National Beauty (AONB).

There are 50 of them and you can read about them here

http://www.visitaonb.org.uk/

Each of these places will have their own tourist information centres where you can find out about places to stay and things to do.

For example here is the official web site of the Cumbria (lake district) tourist information board.

btw which country are you from ?

You should not restrict yourself to England and there are far more places in Scotland where you will find serenity, and although you will be restricted by cost considerations there are quite a few very good options. I suggest you use the contact us link at www.visitscotland.com to get advice on the best approach - they are there to help. Best wishes for a happy marriage (never mind the wedding or honeymoon, it's all that comes after that that is really important - I consider myself lucky that my experience has been at least 90% a happy one, nothing is perfect remember !).

me any my husband stayed in a remote cottage, a few meters from the shore of lochcarron which was a perfect place for serenity, mountains and lakes etc - its in the highlands of scotland
