The Apartments Coniston

The school holidays are on their way out, but the Kids Afternoon Tea at Wild Boar Estate isn't.

It's the children's take on our Alternative Afternoon Tea, served at the Grill & Smokehouse, £18 per child. Mini Longhorn hot dog, mini cod and chips, cheesy nachos, toffee popcorn, a double chocolate cookie and a hot chocolate or milkshake to finish. Then straight out into 72 acres of woodland to burn it all off.

Term time or not, it's staying on the menu, so this is just as much a weekend or half term plan as it is a last-week-of-summer one.

What's the one thing on that stand your kids would ask for every visit?

Wild & Wonderful 🌿💦

A wild swim at Devoke Water — where the water is still, the fells are rugged and the views are simply breathtaking. 🏔️💙

One of those magical Lake District moments where you can leave the world behind, take a deep breath and just be.

Perfect for a day of adventure when staying at The Apartments Coniston. 🥾🏊‍♀️
