If you want to put a smile on their face treat them to something local and show the love to our independent shops, enjoy your Valentine’s Day!
Love is in the air! It’s that time of year when our local florists stock up on roses, shop windows are filled with heart-themed décor chocolates, personalised cupcakes or even a graze box are available locally with a bit of added fizz. There is so much choice available from your local businesses. If you’re struggling for ideas, lovely gift vouchers are available from most of our businesses based here in The Rossendale Valley.
February 14th – the day we celebrate love and romance. Youngsters pluck up the courage to send anonymous cards to their crushes and couples dress up to enjoy a romantic meal together.
For many, Valentine’s Day begins with a card in the morning and ends with a lovely evening meal out. But with a full day to celebrate, why not make the most of it?
You can make the day extra special by waking up and sharing breakfast in bed, delivered with a kiss. Keep the romance alive throughout the day and let your loved one know you’re thinking of them by sending a surprise to their workplace, like a beautiful bouquet of flowers or a delivery from their favourite bakery.
You could even pay a visit to your other half on their lunch break, taking an office picnic with produce you can find locally from your independent shops or Deli’s you or popping out for a bite to eat to spend a bit of quality time together and break up the working day.
The day can be finished any way you choose. A popular choice is dining out at a nice restaurant, here in the Rossendale Valley we have such a great choice. However, if that isn’t your thing, perhaps you could catch a film at the cinema or simply go for a walk to your favourite spot. You may even decide to go away for a couple of nights, relaxing together in a country hotel or reconnecting on a city breaks, our local travel agents can guide you in the right direction
If you’re on a mission to save some money after an extravagant Christmas, enjoying a home-cooked meal and a bottle of wine can be just as special.
Valentine’s Day can be anything you make it. It’s a day for those who have been hit by Cupid’s arrow to celebrate having each other
