Start the day with a surprise, because – let’s face it – you can’t go wrong with flowers! Our florist, McQueen’s create beautiful bouquets for delivery, or make your own arrangement with Bloom & Wild’s carefully hand-packed letterbox flowers.
You may not be able to leave your house, but that doesn’t mean you can’t be creative. Why not enjoy an indoor picnic? Find a giant blanket to sprawl out on, add cushions for comfort and some greenery to bring the outside in. To save you making the hamper, we recommend Pique’s Ultimate Brunch which includes blueberry pancakes with maple syrup & berries, mini pain au chocolat, pain au raisins and more!
Indulge in some self-care together and create an at home spa experience. Think candles, massages and essential oils to leave you fully relaxed. We recommend Temple Spa’s award-winning truffle range for the ultimate treat.
Spend quality time together with Sipsmith’s Valentine’s Day Cocktail Masterclass. Ahead of the class, you’ll be sent a kit that includes ingredients to make two delicious cocktails which have been expertly designed for the occasion. As well as making these yourself, you’ll be guided through a tutored gin tasting and hear about how Sipsmith came to be and their influence in the recent Gin’aissance.
Make dinner extra special with the help of one of Britain’s top chefs! There are numerous restaurants creating delivery boxes that provide you with all the ingredients and instructions to make their meals easily at home. Our favourites include Jimmy Garcia’s party boxes, Stein’s at Home where you can find special lobster or steak Valentine’s menus and Tommy Banks food boxes for Michelin star food at home!
If – like us – you’re missing a day or evening out at the theatre for special occasions, you’ll be pleased to learn that the National Theatre have introduced a streaming service, where you can watch live recordings of plays from the comfort of your home. Why not dress up to make it feel as if you’re really there!
