Valentines' Day Ideas for East Grinstead
Valentines' Day may be considered something of a trauma for some people, but it is really just the perfect excuse for a day of spoiling. For those of us in the East Grinstead area, there are bundles of options for making the 14th of February a day to remember - for all the right reasons - and here are just a select few of our favourites.
Tea for Two...
With Valentines' Evening comes the perfect excuse for a candlelit dinner, and East Grinstead has much to offer when it comes to top notch cuisine. Just a short trip out to the picturesque Copthorne will lead you to The Old House, the perfect choice for countryside fine dining with cosy corners to snuggle up in and an open fire by which you can soak up the award-winning English and French cuisine (have a look at their Valentines' menu here).
If you fancy a trip down to Forest Row, then The Swan is the top choice for a loved-up dinner. Slap bang in the centre of Forest Row, The Swan has all of the cosy atmosphere combined with an excellent menu of locally sourced, fresh dishes. Pick what you'll be dining on before you get there with The Swan's Valentines' menu, or visit their page for more information.
Gifts...
Buying a Valentines' Day gift is something of a minefield, with endless shelves of heart-shaped boxes and cheesy greetings' cards just waiting for that awkward message. For the woman in your life, choosing a gift needn't be a cause of worry; read through our essential guide to a perfect St. Valentines' and it'll be a breeze.
While it may be something of a cliche, receiving a bunch of flowers is guaranteed to put a smile on somebody's face. For exquisite floristry, take a trip to the beautiful walled garden at Orchard Flowers, in Orchard Nursery. This family-run florist pride themselves on creating stunning contemporary or traditional designs for any occasion; just drop into the nursery to discuss your perfect bouquet.
For something a bit different, why not consider giving gift vouchers for some pampering? Roots Hair Studio in East Grinstead should be your first choice; Sophie Carter's high calibre salon is proud to offer a friendly service and top quality results. Plus, for a limited time only, if you spend £25 on gift vouchers at Roots, you'll get £10 of gift vouchers free! For more details, take a look at this offer here.
JoJo Boutique, located in charming Cuckfield, is a unique alternative to the dreary high street stores. Enjoy the warm welcome and expert guidance in this delightful boutique, or why not make a day of it with your lady and make the most of the many cafes, restaurants and shops that Cuckfield has to offer.
Something Special...
For something that little bit extra special, why not scoop your special someone off their feet and into a luxurious chauffeur-driven car? Country Cars, of Forest Row, provide a high class limousine hire service ideal for injecting that added wow factor to your Valentines' Day.
