Celebrate Father’s Day with a Timeless Gift: Classic Car Hire

Father’s Day is just around the corner, and what better way to celebrate than with a gift that combines nostalgia, excitement, and pure driving pleasure? At RNG Classics, we offer an unforgettable experience that your dad will cherish forever—driving a classic car through the picturesque Surrey Hills.

Imagine the look on his face when he gets behind the wheel of a sleek Jaguar E-Type, feeling the powerful engine roar to life. This iconic car, with its elegant curves and timeless design, is sure to reignite his love for cars of old. Or perhaps he’d prefer the legendary Porsche Speedster, embodying the spirit of 1950s racing with its smooth handling and undeniable charm. And for those who dream of the open road, nothing beats the rugged allure of the 1966 Mustang, a symbol of American muscle and freedom.

The Surrey Hills, with its winding roads and stunning landscapes, provides the perfect backdrop for this unique experience. Your dad can cruise through scenic routes, exploring quaint villages and lush countryside, all while enjoying the comfort and style of a classic car. It’s more than just a drive; it’s a journey back in time, evoking memories and creating new ones.

Our Father’s Day promotion offers special rates and packages, making it easier than ever to give your dad a gift that’s as exceptional as he is. Whether he’s a lifelong car enthusiast or simply appreciates the finer things in life, a day spent driving a classic car is the ultimate treat.

This Father’s Day, give your dad the gift of nostalgia, adventure, and joy with RNG Classics. Book now and let him experience the thrill of driving a timeless classic through the beautiful Surrey Hills.

DIVE INTO FIN-TASTIC FATHER’S DAY FUN!

SEA LIFE OFFERS FREE ENTRY IN CELEBRATION OF NEW ARRIVALS THIS FATHER’S DAY

NEW DADS INCLUDE A PENGUIN IN SCARBOROUGH, AN OTTER IN WEYMOUTH AND RAYS IN MANCHESTER

This Father’s Day, SEA LIFE centres across the UK are inviting families to dive into an ocean of excitement and celebrate their fin-tastic father figures, with free entry for one parent!

SEA LIFE sites have welcomed a series of new arrivals in recent months, meaning there’s a whole host of new dads dipping their toes into parenting for the very first time.

To celebrate the new arrivals, from June 10th to 16th, visitors will be able to claim a Father’s Day special offer, with one parent going free when any other ticket is purchased. The offer is valid for visits up to and including August 4th – meaning there’s plenty of time to organise some family fun.

Get ready to meet SEA LIFE’s flippin’ fantastic father figures:

SEA LIFE SCARBOROUGH

Meet Skipper, the dashing penguin who’s been waddling through life for nine years, with the help of SEA LIFE aquarist Todd German, who hand-reared Skipper himself, becoming his surrogate dad.

Partnered with Betty for three years, Skipper is now all grown up and has recently celebrated the hatching of their first chick. Weighing in at 3.3kg, this little bundle of joy is under the watchful eyes of both parents and it’s a real family affair in the penguin world, with parenting duties split right down the middle – 50/50. Come witness the cuteness overload and the heart-warming teamwork between Skipper and Betty as they raise their chick to be the coolest bird in town.

SEA LIFE WEYMOUTH

Badger, the bachelor extraordinaire, has finally found love! After a decade of solo adventures, Badger met his match in Isa. Their whirlwind romance led to the arrival of their adorable pups: Kimchi, Tofu, Sushi, and Miso!

These otter-ly adorable additions have brought laughter and joy to SEA LIFE Weymouth. Badger has taken to fatherhood like an otter to water, showing off his affectionate and protective side with pride. Join the family as they splash around in their new habitat, filled with otter enrichment activities for endless fun and frolics.

SEA LIFE MANCHESTER

Making waves on May 11th, a baby Cownose Ray has entered the scene, stealing hearts left, right, and centre! Cownose Rays live in large sociable groups, so not only will the new dad be caring for the pup, but he’ll also rely on Manchester’s other rays to help out with parenting duties.

SEA LIFE HUNSTANTON

An adorable amphibian at Hunstanton has welcomed seven baby axolotls into the world this month, with the salamander breed popular with the youngsters due to their similarity to a specific Pokémon, as well as their inclusion in popular game Minecraft. The team at Hunstanton has also welcomed 100s of baby stick insects to the attraction.

SEA LIFE, said: “We’re delighted to announce all our new arrivals at SEA LIFE centres nationwide. New arrivals of course mean new fathers – so we’re wishing all our new dads a very happy Father’s Day.

“To celebrate their special day, we’re offering guests free entry for one parent, meaning families can dive into a discounted day out and visit all the babies at their nearest SEA LIFE centre!”

This fin-tastic free ticket deal isn’t just an underwater affair – it extends to other Merlin attractions, including The Edinburgh and York Dungeon and LEGOLAND® Discovery Centre in Manchester and Birmingham. So, whether visitors are exploring the depths of the ocean, delving into the darkest depths of history, or diving into a world of LEGO® bricks, there’s something for all families!

Father’s Day with Big Hat Bushcamp – Surrey

Mission: Breakout – The Escape Room in London – Father’s Day 2024 Activities

Bring along your dad for FREE this Father’s Day!

Treat your dad to an amazing escape room experience he’ll never forget! Just enter discount code DADGOESFREE at checkout to receive £28 OFF your booking this Father’s Day!

With its setting in the former South Kentish Town tube station, escape room games don’t get much more immersive than Mission: Breakout.

Can you escape from the disused tube station of Camden?

You have 60 minutes. You must employ teamwork, ingenuity, creativity, and out of the box thinking to help you and your family escape in time. The room is filled with mysterious clues, challenging puzzles, and crazy machines.

Escape rooms are tons of fun for all ages. Everyone can get involved and play a part. Teamwork is essential to success. Throughout the puzzles, clues, and challenges, each member of your team will have to use their determination and ingenuity to beat the clock and escape in time.

In many ways, an escape room is only as good as its story. It needs to be something that intrigues, something that is mysterious and exciting.

“The Lost Passenger” game has such a story; in 1951, poet John Betjeman wrote about a passenger who loses his way in the depths of the abandoned underground station. No one knows if that passenger ever escaped and rumours of ghostly presences trapped inside its tunnels linger on.

Your mission is to step down into the Ghost tube station and investigate the paranormal activity!

The second game “Codebreakers” is based on the history of the codebreakers of WWII.

Your mission is to decode the encrypted Nazis messages, find the identity of the spy, and escape from Churchill’s secret War Room!

The third game room “Underground 2099” is a futuristic Sci-Fi adventure, and your mission is to stop the plot of the mysterious King Rat, hidden in the London Underground!

In all games, you will have to work together to find clues and solve a series of puzzles in order to escape the room.

Get your brains working and your blood pumping!

Open everyday from 10 am to 10 pm

Up to 18 players playing the 3 different game rooms at the same time
