No Matter Your Style, These Babymoon Locations Provide Plenty of Rest and Relaxation

While London is a huge draw when it comes to travel in the UK, spending your babymoon in York may be just what the doctor ordered. You'll feel like you've been transported to medieval Britain in this charming, historical city.

Check out the Quarter's twisting and turning alleyways and visit York Minster, a work of architectural grandeur that's meant to be admired. Grab a traditional tea at Bettys Café Tea Rooms and then spend some time browsing the shops in the Shambles.

And, what better way to see it all than to stay as centrally as possible. Grays Court is one of the most historic buildings in England — it was built in 1098 — and is located in a central part of the city, making everything easily accessible. And be sure not to miss the gardens at the hotel.

Phuket is a great way to see Thailand's beaches, but head to little-known Khanom for a bit of seclusion, while still getting an authentic Thai experience.

The city is home to more than 40 antique shops. For more options, there's plenty of shopping to be done on Worth Avenue — the Rodeo Drive of the East.
