3. Workout at White City House

After brunch, if you haven’t had too many Bloody Marys, why not get a sweat on at White City House’s Health Club? It has the biggest gym out of all the UK Houses, and all the equipment you could want, including an indoor swimming pool for laps. Or, if you’d rather take it easy, try out the sauna, steam room or hammam, take a dip in the rooftop pool, and finish off with a protein shake and a coffee from the House Press Bar.

5. Sunday lunch at Dolma Bar

Margate’s popular Dolma Bar is currently holding a one-month residency on the sixth floor of Shoreditch House. The residency comes to a close at the end of February, so why not get down there this weekend for a Sunday lunch?

Bulgarian-born chef Aleksandar Taralezhkov’s take on Balkan food is quite magical: the menu is made up of various dolma and sarma – intricate parcels with leeks and vine leaves folded around kashkaval cheese, charcoal-grilled pork, or stuffed artichokes. They’re great for sharing, so perhaps this could make a romantic early Valentine’s scenario.
