Our Top 5 Honeymoon Ideas

Choosing a Honeymoon destination can be a long and frustrating task.

We have hand picked our top 5 Honeymoon ideas/destinations to save you a little time and effort.

1.  Mediterranean Cruise
A cruise has so much to offer. It is a great way to pack in as much as possible into a short amount of time and is not only for the older generation. We are a little biased on this first idea as this is how we honeymooned back in 2010.
We visited 7 cities on our 12 day cruise around the Mediterranean giving us all the exploring we could imagine in the most beautiful cities. The boat itself can offer amazing food, drink and activities every single day of your trip.

Whether you are looking for a longer stay or a mini-moon, Scotland has to offer some of the most stunning destinations to unwind after your big day.
For total seclusion and peace, why not hire a house on the West Coast? A few days alone with your new spouse after all the stress of wedding planning could be just the ticket.
