Join us for a fantastic day out at Rushden Lakes, a unique shopping and leisure destination that brings together fashion, food, and beautiful outdoor scenery! Unlike standard shopping centres, Rushden Lakes is set right on the edge of a stunning nature reserve. You can browse a brilliant collection of high-street giants and boutique stores—such as House of Fraser, M&S, Next, and Boots—or simply take a leisurely stroll along the beautiful boardwalk overlooking the water. We will have plenty of time to relax and catch up over lunch or coffee at one of the lakeside restaurants and cafés.
This trip is perfect for anyone in our community who wants to enjoy a premier day of shopping and leisure without the hassle of driving, traffic, or car parks. Whether you have a specific shopping list, fancy a scenic walk along the boardwalk, or simply want a fun, social day out with a lovely group of people, you will find a very warm welcome.
