With spring just around the corner, it’s a time of new beginnings and unprecedented romantic gestures. So, what better time to pop the question? Having bought the ring, there is still the concern about choosing the ideal location to propose. It needs to be a place that means something to you both; somewhere that represents your affection for one another and will help to create an unforgettable memory. Thankfully, our lovely hometown of Leeds offers some of the most romantic spots in Yorkshire. Make sure to take full advantage of nature’s beauty by going for a picturesque stroll through the forests and heathland of Otley Chevin. Or, you can recreate chivalric tales of courtly love by exploring the charming medieval ruins of Kirkstall Abbey or Knaresborough Castle. Alternatively, the Romanesque-style Grand Theatre can help set the scene for the big moment – especially if you book your own private box. And for the modernists, what could be more picture-perfect than proposing amongst the work of some of the world’s most celebrated artists at Yorkshire Sculpture Park? Finally, there is always yours truly, Angelica. Why not surprise your loved one with a mix of unbelievable food and stunning views? Based on the Trinity Leeds rooftop, the views of the city skyline can be enjoyed both inside Angelica and outside on our exclusive outdoor terrace. Our seasonal menu means that the food is perfect at any time of the year, and can all be skillfully paired with cocktails crafted by our expert bar team. Our Executive Chef Lee Murdoch creates truly distinct dishes by taking full advantage of the best British produce and our Josper Grill – which chargrills food at 480˚C – so you can be sure that any of our meals will delight your taste buds.
