B

egin your romantic evening in Brighton with something close to every girl’s heart – diamonds.

Jeremy Hoye has been designing handmade jewellery here since 1994 and specialises in those all-important engagement and wedding rings.Or you could wend your way over to Baroque Bespoke Jewellery which stocks a fabulous range of designers.

Of course The Lanes are Brighton’s famous streets, lined quirky shops to treat one another. If culture’s more your thing, book a box for two at the Theatre Royal Brighton, or if you’re more into movies, bag yourselves a cosy sofa for two at Duke of York’s cinema.

Continue the romance with champagne and oysters at Riddle And Finns before heading to Drakes Hotel with signature rooms overlooking the sea and famous Brighton Pier and a bathtub big enough for two in the picture postcard window. The cocktail bar is open 24 hours for residents, so you can make it a late one.
