Whilst sitting under the stars sounds romantic, the weather often makes this impossible, so why not go to the National Space Museum instead? Rain or shine won’t make a difference, and you can have fun and learn at the same time.

In the number one spot is Cocoa Amore Chocolatier, where you and your date can learn the immersive process of chocolate making. They have a range of chocolate workshops where you can learn to make your own chocolate as well as the history of chocolate. Not only is it a romantic thing to learn together but you will also be able to take your indulgent creations home to enjoy later on. The classic chocolate workshop lasts 1.5 to 2 hours and will have 2 to 6 people in a group, costing £45 per person. However, they also offer a truffle workshop for £20 per person, which is better suited for big groups but teaches the art of truffle making.
