There’s something truly special about spending your birthday in the heart of the Kent countryside – especially when you’ve got a beautiful Bloom Stays property to call your own. Whether you’re marking a milestone or simply want an excuse to gather friends and family, we can help you turn a great getaway into something even more memorable.

At Bloom Stays, we don’t just find you the perfect house – we go one better. Our Extras and Experiences are designed to make birthdays, anniversaries and special occasions that much more enjoyable. From in-house dining to countryside bike tours, vineyard visits to yoga and massage sessions, we’ve handpicked trusted local partners to bring the celebration to your door.

Here’s how to make your Kent birthday break one you won’t forget.

 

Private chefs & catered feasts

Skip the stress of cooking and let a local chef take over your kitchen, when you book a Bloom Stays holiday let. Whether you want a formal sit-down dinner, a themed tasting menu, or relaxed grazing boards shared among your group, our catering partners can bring restaurant-quality food to your holiday home (and yes, they’ll even do the washing up).

 

Cocktail classes & wine tastings

Shake up your celebration with a private cocktail masterclass – the perfect way to get the party started. Prefer something a little more slower-paced? Our partners at Wine Tours of Kent will bring a wine tasting experience to you, or chauffeur you through some of Kent’s best vineyards.

 

Spa days at home

Treat yourself (or someone special) to a birthday massage or beauty treatment from one of our expert therapists. We work with a team of mobile massage professionals who offer everything from deep tissue and facials to reflexology and pamper parties – ideal for a birthday wind-down.

Find your zen

Reconnect and recharge with a private yoga or meditation session right in your holiday home. Whether you’re new to the mat or a seasoned yogi, our wellness partners tailor every session to you – with sound baths, reiki and mindfulness also available for something a little different.

 

Explore on two wheels

Fancy a birthday adventure? Discover Kent’s rolling countryside, coastal routes and vineyard trails with cycle hire delivered to your door. Guests may choose from self-guided rides, or join a local expert for a scenic tour with a pub lunch built in.

 

Vineyard visits & tastings

If your idea of birthday heaven involves a good glass of something local, you’re in luck. From in-house tastings to guided vineyard tours, Kent’s flourishing wine scene is yours to explore. Think panoramic views, picnic lunches, and some of the best bottles that the country has to offer.

Local treats – delivered

In the mood for a little birthday indulgence? Kick off your celebrations with freshly baked pastries delivered by Docker Bakery, or stock your fridge with local cheeses and chutneys from Cheesemakers of Canterbury and Dockyard Jams. You can even order a showstopping birthday cake from one of our talented local bakers – the perfect centrepiece for your special day.

Get creative

Want to try your hand at something a little different? Book a pottery session with one of our local artists, for a brilliant way to mark the occasion and take something personal home with you.
