Very few bonds are as strong as the one you have with your best friend. While we spend most of our time working on our romantic relationships, those deep and supportive friendships need nurturing, too, right?

So, what better excuse to spend some quality time together than Galentine’s Day! Whether you prefer a cosy night in or want to hit the town, Hurley’s have got you covered. Get ready to strengthen that bond with our 5 amazing mate-date ideas.


1. Wine and dine

Is your bestie also a bit of a foodie? Splash out on a fancy dinner date at one of the North West’s hottest restaurants. Try somewhere new and experience different flavours together or revisit an old haunt to reminisce about times gone by.

Want something more casual? Nothing beats a coffee and cake crawl to indulge in delicious, sweet treats and gossip non-stop. Just be sure to rock a comfy tee, like this super cute one from P.E. Nation, and some generous joggers to eat as much as you like!



2. Host a slumber party

Remember those old sleepovers with your bestie? All listening to music and chatting ‘til dawn. Why not relive those teenage years with a grown-up slumber party to remember? Think Netflix movie marathons, board games, cocktail making - and don’t forget to show off your new PJs! For the ultimate cosy feeling, pair your comfy nightwear with some snuggly Rose Grey UGG slippers. Want to take things up a notch? Book a night at a swanky hotel for an uber-indulgent slumber party with your gal pal.



3. Chill to the max with a spa day

Life’s pretty hectic and often gets in the way of spending quality time with your bestie. So, what better way to slow down and forget everything else than a bit or R and R at The Youth Sanctuary Spa?

Kickstart your new year in style with facials, massages and a dip in the Jacuzzi. Reconnecting has never felt so good.


4. Get active

Are you more of an adventurous pair? Strap on your hiking boots and stroll around the beautiful Heaton Park. Walking, talking and getting out in nature - three of the best ways to boost your wellbeing!

Two wheels more your thing? Cycle around the Liverpool Loop line or Longdendale Trail to get your heart pumping before finding a cosy local for Sunday lunch by the fire.


5. Shop ‘til you drop

Did someone say retail therapy? We’re all ears! Hitting the shops with your best friend is the perfect girl date, because who else will really tell you what you like in everything you try on? Whether you treat yourself to a gorgeous pair of Ted Baker heels or stunning Versace dress, anything you buy today will remind you of your Galentine for years to come! Who knows – you might pick up some brilliant birthday gift ideas for them while you’re at it!
