Saving for xmas?

Hi,
I was in a company sharesave scheme where we committed to payments for three years and at the end had the choice of the shares or the money back.
That worked great as a saving up for xmas plan after the initial three years. Now that has ended and the only option is to be in a buy as you earn type scheme, but this means I am taking the risk on the share price rising.
What I would like is to be able to pay £100pm into an account that was separate from my normal account but would let me access it when I needed to.
Other than another savings account, can anyone make any recommendations?
Cheers TC

Interest-paying current account, such as TSB Plus (5%)
Regular savings account that pays at least 4%, e.g. First Direct 6%0
