For the coffee lovers out there, this one's a serious treat.

Bad Hand Coffee is one of the south coast's most celebrated independent roasters, hand-roasting their beans daily from their converted warehouse in Bournemouth's colourful Triangle.

This prize gives you two bags of freshly roasted whole beans - your choice of blend from their brilliant lineup. Whether you're drawn to the award-winning Shaka, the bold and juicy Morning Glory, or the smooth and syrupy French Roast, there's something for every taste. All coffee comes packed in home compostable bags, ethically sourced, and roasted using solar-powered energy. And there's a Bad Hand mug to drink it all from, naturally.

There's something genuinely special about drinking your morning coffee from a cup made by hand, fired by flame, and unique in all the world.

These beautiful sip cups are handcrafted by Imogen Charleston at Moon Studio Ceramics - a rustic pottery studio nestled on an old farm on the outskirts of Christchurch, Dorset. Made from woodfired white stoneware clay, each cup carries warm earthy tones and its own subtle character - no two are quite alike, because no two ever could be.

You may have already spotted them in the wild - these exact cups were previously stocked at Bad Hand Coffee, where they became firm favourites.

This prize is a pair of two sip cups - perfect to share with someone special over a really good brew.

Retail value: £50.

Just a short drive from Boscombe lies one of Dorset's most quietly extraordinary gardens - a place that feels less like a garden and more like a secret world you've stumbled into.

Knoll Gardens in Wimborne is the UK's leading specialist in ornamental grasses, and a visit at any time of year is a genuinely memorable experience. Since 1994, internationally acclaimed gardener Neil Lucas has spent three decades crafting a naturalistic garden that moves with the seasons - flowing grasses lit golden by low autumn sun, dramatic perennials reaching skyward, and an arboretum of unusual trees providing canopy and calm.

It's also a thriving habitat for wildlife: keep an eye out for little owls, kingfishers, deer, and dragonflies as you wander the winding paths. This isn't just a garden - it's an ecosystem. And it's won 10 consecutive RHS Chelsea Flower Show gold medals to prove it.

This prize gives entry for four people. Perfect for a family afternoon, a date with a fellow plant lover, or simply a day of slow walking and quiet wonder.

Generously donated by Knoll Gardens. Subject to standard opening times.

This is chocolate as it should be - bold, ethical, and genuinely extraordinary.

Ethicoco is one of only a handful of true bean-to-bar craft chocolate makers in the UK, handcrafting every bar from scratch at their beautiful Boscombe shop.

Silky smooth, intensely flavoursome chocolate that supermarket bars simply cannot compete with.

And here's the brilliant part: it's 100% dairy-free, nut-free, and gluten-free - so absolutely everyone can enjoy it. With over 20 flavours to choose from (think Strawberry White Cacao, Ginger Crunch, Chai Latte, and a stunning 90% single origin Dominican Republic dark), this trio of bars is a proper treat for curious chocolate lovers.

Ethicoco sources only from ethical traders - no child labour, no slavery, no shortcuts. Just great chocolate, made with integrity, right here on the south coast.
