The actress, 28, beamed as she sipped on champagne alongside her fiancé Joe Parker at Marys Cottage Grasmere, in the popular village in the Lake District area of Cumbria.

Wearing a bandeau top and high-waisted bikini bottoms, Alexandra showed off her incredible physique as she posed with the bottle of bubbly in the hot tub.

In one photo, Alexandra flashed a big smile as she held the champagne in one hand and a glass in the other.

Giving fans a glimpse of inside their accommodation, she looked happier than ever as she topped up her fizz while standing next to a large bouquet of roses and a card.

Alexandra looked in her element as she enjoyed a little rest and relaxation into the evening.

The chuffed star told fans that she had an first-rate time, writing: “Just a spot of rest for the wicked.

“In the cutest fairytale cottage ever!”

It comes as Alexandra confirmed that she will remain on screen until April but has already filmed her final scenes.

Last week, she told fans that that she got to keep a beloved prop from the Coronation Street set – one of her character’s motivational mugs.

Alexandra shared an image of a ‘boss babe’ mug, along with a handwritten note from the Coronation Street art department team.

Corrie bosses have confirmed the door will be left open for Alexandra to return to the role of Emma.

Speaking about her decision to leave after four years on the cobbles, she said: “Playing Emma, on the most iconic street there is, has been the best experience of my life.

“Four years have gone so fast.

“Compared to other cast members I still feel like a newbie, which makes my decision to leave all the more difficult.

“But I feel it’s the right time for me.

“I can’t thank everyone at Coronation Street enough for welcoming me and trusting me to tell so many wonderful and heartfelt ­stories.

“And for the friendships.”
