Preparing for Summer at County Oak Retail Park

Summer is the best time of the year, long strolls in the sun, trips to the seaside, holidays abroad and the sound of the ice-cream truck coming down the road. There is a lot to prepare for in the summer, but is there a more convenient place to do it than your local retail park? We have put together a Summer Guide on how a quick trip to our retail park can prepare you for your summer holidays.

Is there a better place to start than sorting out your summer wardrobe for your summer holiday? Next has a fabulous variety of summer garments and accessories for men, women and kids, perfect for all occasions whether that be a trip to the local seaside or a family holiday to Spain, check out their full collection here.

Alternatively, if you pop into TK Maxx you are guaranteed to find some unique summer pieces at low prices (from top brands!). They have a great selection of sunglasses, summer accessories and beachwear.

After you have sorted your holiday wardrobe, pop into Boots to grab the essentials. They have everything you could possibly need, from sun protection to travel minis to travel healthcare.

Summer is also the perfect opportunity to make your garden dreams come true! Why not buy a new set of trendy garden furniture, plant some beautiful flowers or just turn your whole garden into a summer paradise!

Visiting Halfords is the perfect first step to transforming your garden into a 5-star summer resort. Start with their great selection of hot tubs and inflatable pools so you can throw a pool party for the whole family (we’re sure the kids will approve of this one!). To complete your pool party, grab something from Halford’s awesome range of garden toys and inflatables.

If you feel like starting with something a little more practical, pop into Furniture Village and check out their summer-ready range of garden furniture, perfect for hosting summer parties and BBQs.

Since we are already on the topic of BBQs, grill up some traditional Greek kebabs or some peri chicken with Curry’s wide range of BBQs.

Alternatively, if you’re too busy to transform your garden, take the whole family camping! Halfords has a fantastic extensive range of camping gear, from tents to cooking equipment to sleeping bags, they have it all! Check out their full range of camping gear here.
