If gazing across a table for two isn't really your thing, and you don't fancy a night in front of the telly with a tub of ice cream then get your jim-jams on and catch 40 winkswith a very distinct twist. 40 Winks is an elegant 1700's four story townhouse, now a hotel run by interior designer David Carter, this little palace oozes opulence and glamour in East London's Stepney Green. Carter teamed up with Curator of Tales Rachel Rose Reid to create the Bedtime Story nights back in 2009 and have been entertaining the public ever since. If you're looking for something a little out of the ordinary this Valentine's then this could be right up your street. Spread over three lusty nights, the story-telling sessions cater for the loved up, the lovesick and those on the lookout for love. Pyjamas and nightgowns are the desired dress code and prizes will be given to the 'most bewitching girl.' Professional storytellers, musicians and mischievous performers Sally Pomme Clayton and Xanthe Gresham provide the entertainment, and refreshments come in the form of fruity gin cocktails. This unique night promises to have you squealing with delight, but don't just take our word for it. Bedtime stories has won numerous awards and has even been listed as one of the 14 most amazing things to do in the world by the Sunday Times Travel Magazine! Just don't let the bed bugs bite.Bedtime Stories at 40 Winks images
