3 days holiday advice

Need a bit of helps here chaps.
Me and SWMBO have got 2 weeks holiday starting on Monday and have decided its a bit silly to have a proper holiday given its kids school holiday time and everything is silly money so we have postponed that until about October.
So we've decided to just have 3 nights somewhere in the UK really nice,perfect location would be somewhere I can fly fish with a really nice spa for Maria,distance not too important as long as it's less than say 8 hours so the Outer Hebrides is a no no !!!
Nothing too formal as we spend our working lives in suits so smart casual attire so we can chill is OK.
Budget about a grand tops,anybody actually been anywhere that fits the bill? MY2011 HSE Santorini/Ivory/Piano Black/Privacy Glass/TV .Sadly gone.

You might want to check out the Saunton Sands Hotel, Braunton, North Devon.

Foods usually very high standard, Fly fishing on the Taw not too far away.; believe there's still beauty treatment and stuff. Have a squint at their web site.

If you're into golf the course is more or less on site.

If you fancy a wee trip North of the border check out http://www.cameronhouse.co.uk/cameron-house.html

Nice but smart casual at the same time, also Glasgow is about 15mins by car or train so a wee day out there is easy as well. RRS TDV8 (loving it)

yeah they have had their day

worth calling the resort and trying to get 3 days in the carrick lodges, stone build lodges are the best IMO.
Gleneagles is always a good best decent rooms from 300gbp

Just to clarify I'm a novice at flyfishing so need a small lake attached to the hotel rather than anything really challenging.
Looked at Gleneagles but too formal to just chill out and the fishing costs are ludicrous. MY2011 HSE Santorini/Ivory/Piano Black/Privacy Glass/TV .Sadly gone.

Lake district Chris, this place is great and within budget and has a great spa and fishing nearby........

Or this is my place of choice (in the Lake House, not main hotel) for the Lakes which is superb with private lake but expensive

Used to love the air show on windermere as a kid, moored up on the family boat with the red arrows shooting around above your head, and all the other low flying aircraft
