It’s that time of year again when we get to celebrate love. Valentine’s Day also called Saint Valentine’s Day originated in the ancient Roman festival of Lupercalia, a fertility celebration commemorated annually on February 15th Pope Gelasius I recast this pagan festival as a Christian feast day circa 496, declaring February 14th to be St. Valentine’s Day. So now you know the history, here are some of our Valentine’s Day ideas!
Sometimes there is nothing better than a cosy night in. If you’re on a budget, why not treat your loved one to a takeaway or cook them up a tasty meal? It’s the thought that counts after all!
There is an array of places to take your loved one on Valentine’s Day. Wiltshire, Dorset & Somerset all have their fair share of great places to eat from restaurants boasting a Michelin-starred chef to cosy pub settings that serves traditional hearty food! Whatever you choose to go for, a meal for two is definitely worth it!
There is nothing better than a romantic stroll with your loved one. Our top picks are the famous Westbury White Horse in Wiltshire with free parking, Lulworth Cove in Dorset with its stunning views and places to eat and Kings Cliff in Somerset with its forest walks and breathtaking scenery.
