14th February 2024
Are you looking for unique Valentine’s Day ideas? British farms have a lot to offer when it comes to romantic activities.
Spending quality time together and making memories is probably the best way to gift our loved one on this special day. Who said that farm scenery cannot be romantic? Check out our list of places around the UK that offer unforgettable experiences for couples.
Romantic dinner (with a polar bear!)
Jimmy’s Farm, located in Suffolk, invites couples to spend Valentine’s Day enjoying food and romance in the farm’s beautifully converted barn. You can choose from either a two course or three course dinner.
Who knows, you can even meet the farm’s owner, a well-known TV presenter and farmer, Jimmy Doherty. The farm offers a range of animal experiences and recently Jimmy’s Farm welcomed its new inhabitant, polar bear Ewa, who was rescued from a zoo in Sweden.
Valentine’s afternoon tea
Lathcoats Farm in Essex offers a special Valentine’s afternoon tea in The Bee Shed. What’s more, you can also visit its farm shop and get local ingredients to cook up a romantic three course dinner, or get some delicious ready cooked meals and desserts from Gourmade and By Ruby.
Peaceful break
Humble Bee Farm in North Yorkshire invites couples to join for a peaceful romantic break. The farm’s glamping accommodation includes cabins with hot tubs, luxury cottages and a seaside apartment in the nearby seaside resort of Filey.
The glamping site located in Flixton is a world away from the hustle and bustle, set in a peaceful valley in the Yorkshire Wolds. This experience would definitely be one to remember.
Dinner delivered to your door
Farm Shop Somerset in Bruton offers an unforgettable Valentine’s Day dinner delivered direct to your door. You can choose a delicious feast box for two, or a cut of award-winning beef. Finish the night with indulgent chocolate truffles and locally made tipples.
Valentine’s hamper
Occombe Farm offers Valentine’s Hampers for lovers from around Devon. The hamper includes local bubbles, chocolates, gin and even scented candles. The shop’s team is happy to help you create the perfect gift for your loved one. If you are interested, pop into the farm today!
Alpaca walks
Located in Scottish Angus, Newton Farm offers alpaca walks. Having a very sensitive and intuitive nature, alpacas are great therapy animals, so spending time in their company will leave you feeling happy, content, and less anxious.
With 23 alpacas, hens, horses, sheep, and goats, this smallholding is a great place to experience what farming life is like on a smaller scale. You can also choose to extend your visit and stay at one of Beirhope’s three wild camping pitches or one of their two furnished bell tents for hire.
Valentine’s Day bouquet
Valentine’s Day wouldn’t be complete without flowers. Country Market in Hampshire can help with choosing the best bouquets for your other half as the farm shop and garden nursery have a great selection of plants and flowers.
