A high-class escort service in Essex is an opportunity to de-stress from a high-pressure week, indulge in your favourite activities, and make the most of the girlfriend experience.

Choosing a luxury date venue can be complex, and although the best restaurants for couples in Essex are tried and tested, if you’re keen to impress and book a follow-on date, it may be worth sampling something a little different.

We’ve listed some of our most recommended date ideas to make you laugh, kick back, and make your downtime count.


1. Wine Tasting

If you know your Malbec from your Merlot, or the difference between a perfectly chilled flute of Blanc de Blancs from Blanc de Noirs, a wine tasting is an excellent chance to show off your refined tastes, enjoy some delicious vintages, and take a trip to a private wine tasting session in the heart of the Essex countryside.  

The Crouch Ridge Estate in Althorne, East Essex, offers hosted experiences with a walk through the vines followed by a private wine tasting. It also provides a broad range of still and sparkling wines. If you’re enjoying the day too much to head home, you can stay overnight in one of the estate cottages.

 

2. A Couples Dance Class

Dancing isn’t for everyone, but if you’re confident in your sense of rhythm and have always wanted to try something new, a no-strings date is the perfect time to give it a whirl. Swing & Sway in Buckhurst Hill offers private ballroom and Latin American lessons, and Elite Dance in Chelmsford provides bespoke tuition.

Don’t forget to let your date know you’d like her to bring her best dancing shoes or whether there is any specific theme she should know about in advance!

 

3. Theatre Evenings

Evenings at the theatre are a great way to watch dramas, ballets, comedies or any other live entertainment that matches your tastes, bringing culture and class to your date. Try the Mercury Theatre in Colchester or The Cliffs Pavilion and Palace Theatre in Southend–extra points if you’d like to reserve a private box for the best possible views and a discreet experience.

 

4. High-End Retail Therapy

Shopping may not immediately spring to mind when you imagine a romantic date. Still, there’s little better than getting a beautiful new suit made to measure and having a second opinion while you enjoy the five-star experience.

Fox Tailoring in Romford and Lewis Yates in Billericay offer private fitting appointments; return to collect your bespoke suit, and you’ll be prepared for an evening to remember. Styling teams at Lewis Yates can also assemble a sophisticated look with cufflinks, shoes, and other finishing touches.

 

5. Drinks in a Sky Bar

Sky bars are endlessly romantic, with panoramic views over the city lights. There are several rooftop bars and terraces to choose from. Be At One in Chelmsford, Vertigo Lounge in Hornchurch and Unit 7 in Basildon have open-air roof bars with lounge-style dining, outdoor heating and exquisite cocktail menus.

Rooftop cocktails are best enjoyed with a reservation to avoid disappointment, and we’d recommend a bar with optional coverage in the event of bad weather!
