WHAT TO DO THIS WEEK

LONDON

Singles Wine Tasting

If you feel like sipping on some delicious wine, munching on canapés, and chatting to some like-minded single folk, then we suggest you head down to this event. Rank your fave wine, split into four categories, and if your choices match someone else’s, you could wine a blind date at The Avalon for Valentine’s the next day!

For an alternative, yet beautiful way to spend an evening during this romantic week, follow the trail of these pretty flowers in a walk through some of the 70 acres of woods that span across the estate. Looking like a carpet of snow, the woods are lit up and you can spot interesting sculptures along the way. Afterwards, pop into the Snowdrop Café for a warming cup of tea. The kids will love this, too.
