50th Birthday Experiences

Rock ‘n Stroll Walking Tour with John Ellis, formerly of The Stranglers (yes, really it’s him), takes you through the London that shaped British music – the kind of thing that needs 30 years of gig-going behind you, at £45. In a different context Exquisite Dining Experience & Sake Pairing fuses Mediterranean and Japanese cooking with a proper sake flight — the sort of meal that outclasses most “big birthday” dinners, £144.

Street Food Masterclass is a hands-on session through bold, big-flavour dishes from around the world, £99. Thai Explosion Cookery Class does the same with Southeast Asian flavours and considerably more chilli than either of you were expecting, from £99.

For something more countryside, Charcuterie and Golf near Bray combines curing your own salami with a round of nine holes before lunch, from £164.

Several of our vineyard and countryside overnight stays fit the “proper splash-out” brief see our Outside the M25 and Christmas collections for the full range, most from £140 upward.

Yes — eVouchers land within 15 minutes, any hour of the day or night. We can send straight to them, or to you to forward on. If fifty years feels like too much to pin down, our Super Voucher lets them pick from the whole site based on your budget. Finally, everything can be exchanged if your first choice doesn’t quite cut the mustard.

Half a century in. Properly celebrated, not just acknowledged.
