Weekend packages
Dirty weekend packages in Newcastle
Our dirty weekend packages in Newcastle come in four styles, from a single indulgent night to a weekend built around a big occasion. Pick the one that sounds most like you, and we will shape it around your dates, your tastes and the bed you have in mind.
- One night to a long weekend
- Tailored to you two
- Explained in your quote

Four ways to do it
Four package styles to start from
These are starting points rather than fixed bundles. They are the shapes most dirty weekend packages in Newcastle end up taking, so you have something to react to before we tailor the details.
The Lie-In
You get one night in a room chosen for the bed, with dinner nearby and a late check-out requested. Breakfast happens whenever you surface, and nobody minds if that's nearly lunchtime.
- One night's stay
- Dinner for two close to the hotel
- Late check-out requested
The Dirty Weekend
This is the classic Friday to Sunday, with an easy first evening, a Saturday to fill or ignore and a slow Sunday morning. It's the style most couples choose, and for good reason.
- Two nights' stay
- Two evenings planned
- Room for an experience or two
The Midweek Escape
This is a quieter break for couples who can take a weekday off. Hotels and restaurants are calmer midweek, and it's often better value than a Saturday night.
- One or two weeknights
- Easier tables and spa slots
- A calmer city to explore
The Big Occasion
This style is built from scratch for anniversaries, proposals and milestone birthdays. We add room styling, spa time, a special dinner and the surprises that make the occasion feel properly marked.
- As many nights as you like
- Room styling and surprises
- Planned around the moment

We don't publish prices, because dates, rooms and extras all change the cost. Your quote sets out exactly what we suggest, and payment options are explained in your quote.
Choosing a style
Which package suits the two of you?
Start with how much time you can take and what you are celebrating. Those two things usually point to the right style before the extras come into it.
You need one good night
The Lie-In suits parents with a babysitter for one night and couples with busy weeks. A proper sleep and a long breakfast can work wonders, as our parents' weekend away page explains.
You want the full weekend
The Dirty Weekend gives you time to arrive, unwind and forget about the outside world. It's ideal for a first weekend away or simply because you deserve one.
It's a big moment
The Big Occasion is for the weekends that need to feel different. It works well for anniversary weekends, proposals and birthdays ending in a zero.
Make it yours
How do we tailor each package to you?
We start with the style you choose and build the rest around the two of you. Tell us how you like to eat, what kind of hotel makes you happy and what you'd like the weekend to feel like, and we will suggest a plan that fits.
From there you can change anything. Swap the restaurant, add a spa afternoon, ask for a room with a bath big enough for two or drop the plans for Saturday entirely. Once you are happy, we confirm the bookings and send one simple itinerary. Our guide to romantic hotels in Newcastle explains what we look for in a room, and the how it works page covers each step.
What shapes your quote
- Dates. Saturdays and February are in higher demand than midweek.
- The room. Suites and rooms with views cost more than standard doubles.
- Dinner. A tasting menu and a bistro supper are very different evenings.
- Extras. Each experience or surprise adds to the total.
Add-ons
Experiences you can add to any package
Every package can be dressed up with an experience or two. Most couples pick one treat and leave the rest of the time for each other. You can see them all on our couples' experiences page.

Couples' spa
You enjoy side-by-side treatments and some time in the pool or sauna. It's the easiest way to arrive at dinner feeling completely relaxed.
Couples' spa
Cocktail masterclass for two
In a private session, you learn to shake a few classics together. You'll drink everything you make, which is rather the point.
Cocktail class
Romantic dinner
We book a table for two chosen for the food and the mood. We match the restaurant to how you like to eat and how dressed up you want to be.
Romantic dinner
Room styling
Petals, LED candles and a chilled bottle can be waiting when you open the door. Everything follows the hotel's house rules.
Room styling
Boudoir photoshoot
This is a tasteful, private shoot that goes at your own pace. Many people book it as a gift for their partner.

Cheeky hamper
We leave fizz, treats and a few playful surprises in the room. It's a fun way to start the weekend on the right note.

Common questions about dirty weekend packages in Newcastle
Can we change what's included in a package?
Yes, and most couples do. The styles are only starting points, so you can swap the hotel, the dinner or the extras until the plan feels right.
Is late check-out guaranteed?
It isn't, because each hotel decides on the day. We request it with every booking and choose hotels that are known to be relaxed about it where we can.
Can a package be a surprise for my partner?
Any style can be planned as a secret. We only contact you, and our surprise weekend away page explains how the reveal works.
How far ahead should we book?
A month or two ahead gives you the best choice for a Saturday night. Midweek breaks can often be arranged at shorter notice, while Valentine's needs booking much earlier.
