Unusual Valentine\u2019s Day date ideas they will not see coming<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Dinner and a movie; I mean, it\u2019s not terrible, but it\u2019s hardly going to win you an award for Best Valentine\u2019s Day date idea. There\u2019s nothing more exciting than the unexpected, and Valentine\u2019s Day should be a day full of heart-pumping, quality time with your favourite person. Unfortunately, most of us have run out of imagination having used it all up on Christmas presents, so we\u2019ve put together a few unusual Valentine\u2019s Day date ideas to inspire you. If that\u2019s not enough, we\u2019ve also curated the perfect\u00a0Valentine\u2019s Gift Collection<\/a>\u00a0for people who like their presents a bit unconventional.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Think outside the chocolate box with these unique date ideas<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

1. Try an Airbnb online experience<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
\"Unusual<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Airbnb\u2019s genius experience platform will fulfil your weirdest desires from the comfort of home. Choose from a range of virtual activities, from the romantic to the hilarious. Follow a plague doctor through Prague, or tour a romantic city with an experienced guide; you can also cook pasta with a grandma, or meet and draw a real llama in the most ridiculous art class ever!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

2. Volunteer somewhere together<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
\"unique<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

The best Valentine\u2019s Day date ideas don\u2019t always have to include just you and your partner; share your love with others when you use Valentine\u2019s Day to help your community. Get gloved up and register for a nearby clean-up event, help at your local animal shelter, or spend the day building care packages for those who are in need of a bit of extra love.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

3. Go indoor rock climbing<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
\"Unusual<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Nothing will test the trust you have in your partner more than dangling from the side of a cliff anchored by nothing but their body weight. Although it might not seem like it, rock climbing is actually the perfect Valentine\u2019s Day date idea; adrenaline is an aphrodisiac, and with all the communication and trust you\u2019ll need, it\u2019s pretty romantic too.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

 4. Team up for a pub quiz<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
\"Fun<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

You guys are killing it, you already know that you\u2019re a formidable team, but now it\u2019s time to show the world. Why not find a cosy local with a roaring fire that\u2019s hosting a pub quiz and spend the evening kicking some ass? Make sure your team name is a crap pun on the word \u201cquiz\u201d that everyone has heard before.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

5. Start (and finish) an upcycle project<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
\"unusual<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Remember that art deco armoire you inherited from your great aunt that\u2019s been gathering dust in the spare room because it\u2019s completely hideous but potentially valuable? Well, it\u2019s now your Valentine\u2019s Day project. Get creative and covered in paint with your partner as you restore it to something you can be both be proud of.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

6. Build a pillow fort<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
\"affordable<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Go back to basics with this unplugged Valentine\u2019s Day date idea. No phones, no TV, no gadgets, just you and your better half cosied up in your homemade fort with yum snacks and a whole load of memories to relive. Don\u2019t pretend like your too mature for cushion forts when you still laugh at your own farts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

7. Go on a scavenger hunt<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
\"unusual<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Most towns and cities have scavenger hunt companies that will create professionally guided or self-guided treasure hunts in your local area. If you live in a more rural location, then it\u2019s not too difficult to create your own. When they successfully complete the hunt, tell them that you are the prize, and they shouldn\u2019t ever forget it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Valentine\u2019s Day gift ideas for unusual tastes<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

We already know that your partner has unconventional taste, they chose you after all. But what do you buy the person whose interests are so niche that it\u2019s impossible to shop for them? Start by checking out our\u00a0Valentine\u2019s Gift Collection<\/a>\u00a0where you\u2019ll find something that will warm even the weirdest of hearts.<\/p>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
