This year we’ve learnt to truly value spontaneity.
Perfect for minimalists
Our monetary gift certificates take up less space than a pack of cards making them a sleek yet stylish gift for loved ones who adore memorable experiences and like to pack light.
Give the gift of freedom
Your loved ones can pick the experience they’ve been dreaming about while at home; a well deserved massage or a cooking class in Puglia. Whether they’re enjoying a midweek treat or an impromptu weekend escape, your gift will be there to treat them to a memorable experience.
Enjoy absolute flexibility
Their monetary certificate is valid for up to 15 months, giving them the freedom to redeem their gift as spontaneously as they wish, in any of their favourite cities in Europe.
The festive season brings its own kind of sparkle - a flurry of celebrations, feasts, and time with those who matter most. To make gifting simple, we’ve curated a selection of bespoke experiences to delight everyone on your list. From candlelit dinners and Italian wine tastings to tranquil spa escapes and moments devoted to yourself, each experience thoughtfully crafted to offer moments of joy.
Preparations were in full swing at the North Pole - ribbons tied, sleigh bells polished, and lists checked twice - yet Father Christmas kindly agreed to pause his busy schedule for an interview. We met him at SCOTCH at The Balmoral, just as the famous clocktower struck 12:03 - it stands watch over Waverley Station, running three minutes fast, so no one ever misses a train. Settled into a deep armchair with a favourite dram in hand, he shared his most treasured places to pause, indulge and unwind across Europe every festive season.
As the world turns ever faster, the more we crave moments that feel timeless. In an age of novelty, amid the noise of constant ‘connection’ and the short-lived churn of the new, many are choosing something rare: nostalgia. Comfort is found in the familiar, meaning in memory, and beauty in places that feel lived-in. Nostalgia has emerged as the new expression of luxury, not as a retreat into the past, but rather a graceful refusal to let its traditions and heritage fade away.
