LOVE it or hate it, Valentine’s Day is here!

If you are looking for a last-minute treat for that special person in your life, here are six ideas guaranteed to get you in the good books.

* Make sure your Valentine’s Day is nice and spicy with a visit to East Z East Restaurant in King George's Hall, Blackburn.

Couples making a booking for a meal on Thursday can enjoy a free glass of house Champagne or a house mocktail on arrival plus 20% off their total bill.

Call 01254 678975.

* This is not just a sausage, this is an M&S Love Sausage…

If you fancy an innuendo-laden breakfast treat, then get yourself down to Marks and Spencer in King William Street.

Described as ‘heart-shaped, lightly-truffled and wrapped in bacon’, the Love Sausage is in stores now and costs £5.

* Inspired by this year’s crop of celebrities stumbling around the rink on Dancing on Ice?

Planet Ice Blackburn Arena is hosting a Valentine’s Day skate, with two for one tickets for everyone if booked online via planet-ice.co.uk.

Just don’t do a Gemma Collins and fall flat on your face.

* While we’d all like to be whisked off to Venice, Verona or Rome this Valentine’s, chances are it’s not going to happen.

But the lovely people at A Mano Restaurant & Bar are offering a taste of Italy at a fraction of the cost. The Cathedral Square eatery is shunning over-priced set menus and will be offering its usual decent prices. More pennies for a nice pressie! Call 01254 447234.

* ”But what if I want to go fancy?”, I hear you cry like Lorraine Kelly in that annoying Wayfair advert.

Head over to Northcote – a luxury hotel with a Michelin Star restaurant in Langho.

Dinner costs £200 per couple and you will get a glass of Forget Brimont Brut Rose, 1er Cru Ludes Reims NV served with snacks, a six-course tasting menu plus gifts for the happy pair.

Northcote is also offering bed and breakfast stays, as well as a lunch menu. Visit northcote.com.

* Enjoy a night sleeping under the stars with your loved one. Rossendale Holiday Cottages offers luxury glamping pods where you can leave the world behind in your own cosy love nest.
