If you're looking for something a little different from the customary candle lit dinner this Valentine's Day then we think you'll love these memorable ideas. From dining on a tram, boat trips and spa days to creating your own personalised gin and even some West African drumming, love is definitely all around in Exeter.
Seaton Tramway
For a truly unique and memorable romantic experience it's all aboard the Seaton Tramway. Embark on a charming tram journey from Seaton to Colyton and savour a delightful three-course dinner at Colyton Station, complete with a welcome drink of Prosecco. This promises to be an unforgettable Valentine's adventure so book your ticket now.
Create your own gin at Quayside Distillery
Nothing says I love you more than something personal, from the heart, so how about creating your very own gin at Quayside Distillery. Choose from over 25 botanicals to make your own unique flavour profile and then produce a private-label spirit that is personal to you. From weird and whacky flavours such as Monster Munch, oyster and doughnut, to a classic strawberry and lime or signature rhubarb and ginger, there's no limit to what you can create.
Speakers from the edge at the Barnfield Theatre
Love is in the air, quite literally, at the Barnfield Theatre with Pete Whittaker taking you on a journey exploring the art of free solo climbing. An extreme sport that's not for the faint-hearted, some might say it's the perfect Valentine's Day date night to get the pulses racing and show your wild side.
A relaxing spa day
For the ultimate relaxing experience on Valentine's Day then it's hard to beat some complete chill out time in one of Exeter's luxury spa spots. The Retreat Spa at Hotel Indigo has taken inspiration from the local landscape of sea and moors to help you completely unwind while nestled in a relaxing walled garden you'll find The REN Spa at Hotel du Vin. Just a stone’s throw from the city centre, there’s the Mercure Exeter Southgate Hotel with its relaxing pool and Swedish sauna and the Wear Park Spa at Exeter’s Golf and Country Club provides the perfect retreat for pamper days and luxurious treatments. If it's an (indoor) rooftop view you fancy then The Spa at St Sidwell's Point will certainly treat you to some well deserved 'you time' and you can enjoy a magical day of pampering.
Stuart Line Cruises
If you don't mind spending your Valentine's Day in the company of others, and some wildlife, then how about a Winter River Exe Cruise? It's a great way to admire everything this beautiful river has to offer and if the weather does get a bit chilly then you can always make use of the cozy blankets. Stuart Line Cruises even have a sailing on the 14th February so it's all aboard the love boat!
West African Drumming Workshop at RAMM
Here's something to get your heart beating - a West African Drumming Workshop at RAMM. Led by Kwame Bakoji-Hume from African Activities, this fun and energetic activity is fun for all the family and it's only £5.50 to take part.
