Moresby Hall Cooking Demonstrations

Instead of taking your loved one out for meal, why not visit Moresby Hall and experience the thick of the cooking action for yourselves?

The cooking demonstration available will make for a splendidly romantic afternoon. Relax in one another’s company and discover how to create something wonderful on a plate - and then take your recipes home and give them a go yourself! Afterall, food is the language of love!

Holker Hall

Holker Hall is open until the 1st of November - and it’s a lovely place to visit during the autumn season. Experience a romantic walk in the stunning gardens, or get lost in the endless, grand rooms available to explore inside.

There’s nothing more romantic that taking a step back in time into the magnificence of Holker Hall.

Go Walking

Nothing says romance more than a secluded walk on an autumn’s day - and the Lakes is full of awe-inspiring places to explore.

There are plenty of local routes that you can take, and if you want some inspiration we recommend exploring the Car Free Walks website. On there you’ll find a range of exciting walks to choose from, so wrap up warm and head outdoors with your loved one.

Lakes Aquarium

Visit an independent cafe

There are few things in life as soothing as listening to the sound of rain pitter-pattering on the windows whilst you snuggle up with a loved one.

And with a range of independent cafes on offer in the area, there’s plenty of places to cuddle up during a shower alongside some sumptuous cakes and pleasant, warming beverages.

We recommend a visit to Brambles Tea Room and Cafe or perhaps Choccobar for some truly delectable, chocolatey delights.

The Lakes Distillery

This one is an hours drive away from The Hideaway, but if you or your loved one enjoys spirits, and would like to know more about how they’re made, then a visit to The Lakes Distillery could be the perfect autumn attraction.

During your visit, you’ll get a guided tour of the distillery as well as a tasting session. This usually lasts between 45 minutes to an hour, and there’s also a shop full of tasty distillery treats too.

Try something different during your autumn getaway to the Lake District and explore what the Lakes Distillery has to offer you and your loved one.
