Visit Lord Byron's ancestral home, a house built onto the ruins of a medieval priory, with lakes, waterfalls and gardens to walk round.
Why it's a good date: Romantic in every sense, especially if one of you likes a poem. The house opens at weekends and in school holidays, so check before you go and make an afternoon of the gardens.
