It's that time of the year again when we have to rack our brains to find something special for Valentine's Day.

Traditionally, flowers are the gift of choice, and we have a wonderful florist who we wholeheartedly recommend – Winspers Florists. With over 4 decades of experience, Charmain and her team of florists will put together something rather fabulous for the love of your life whatever the budget. Winspers Florists also have a selection of chocolates, balloons, champagne and teddies to choose from.

If you fancy a meal with your loved one, then we have two recommendations. One of our continued favourites is PUSHKAR. The name PUSHKAR means “Born to a Flower” which is wonderfully evocative for Valentine’s Day. The rest of the romance will come from the glorious dishes which hail from North India. Or you why not try the newly opened Mint. Enjoy a cocktail in the spacious lobby and then sample the Bangladeshi and Indian cuisine in fabulous contemporary surroundings.  For more information about our recommended restaurants, please click here.

If you looking for a gift then we have a three independent retailers for you. Pottery and Pieces offers a beautiful selection of jewellery, candles and hand-made cards to choose from. The Jewellery Stop has a wide selection of hand-crafted designer jewellery for both him and her as well as a wide range of the most beautiful scarves. Last, but certainly not least, is the perennial Bournville Designs where you can choose from unique jewellery, designer and hand-made ceramics and glassware which can be gift wrapped as well.

If you know your beloved is partial to a bit of pampering then book them a beauty treatment at MediZen or the Therapy Hub. Or for a super-special hair treatment there is the highly recommended Stevenson’s Hair located in George Cadbury’s very first shop that was built in Bournville. And finally there is the brilliant Coustis where you can enjoy hair and beauty treatments under one roof. For more information about recommended health and beauty businesses, please click here.
