Your Plymouth Valentine’s Gift Guide

Valentine’s Day can come with a lot of pressure to find the perfect gift that shows just how well you know your other half. To help you choose, we’ve picked out some of the best presents that Plymouth has to offer!

If they have a sweet tooth…

The mother and daughter duo who run Chocaccino, based on the Barbican, make their own delicious chocolates which are perfect for the chocoholic in your life. Their edible chocolate heart boxes (you read that right – it’s a heart-shaped box of chocolates, made of chocolate!) make for the perfect Valentine’s treat.

If you want to see them sparkle…

Plymouth offers plenty of options when it comes to jewellers. Head to Drake Circus to pick up charm bracelets in Pandora, unique silver designs in Blue Wing Gallery or diamonds from Plymouth’s own Drakes Jewellers, who have been part of the cities retail landscape since 1950.

If they need to unwind…

Did you know that Gaia Spa, located in Boringdon Hall, has won a number of prestigious accolades including Best Spa in UK & Ireland 2018 in the Conde Nast Johansen awards? Treat them to a luxurious and relaxing massage - or even a whole spa day or spa stay - with one of their gift vouchers.

If they like a tipple…

Plymouth Gin has been distilled on the Barbican since 1793 and it’s sure to be a hit with gin lovers. Why not pick up a set of two branded glass tumblers and enjoy a gin or two together?  

If tea is more their thing, treat them to a gift set from Plymouth Tea, who have a tea plantation on the banks of the nearby River Tavy. Pick up a gift set of their luxurious loose leaf teas – will you go for the Armada, Mayflower or Drake blend?!

If they’re an animal lover…

Dartmoor Zoo offer a great range of experiences for those who would love to take a walk on the wild side. Give your loved one a gift they’ll never forget by signing them up to be a Keeper for the Day.

If you don’t want to go wrong…

Need a failsafe gift? You can’t go wrong with flowers – whether you choose a classic red rose, or a colourful bunch of blooms, your other half is sure to be delighted. Pop into Plymouth City Market and visit floristry stalls Petals or Country Garden Florist for beautiful bouquets.
