1. Rent a canoe on the Lancaster canal

For fans of water sports, Countryside Canoes rents canoes out on summer evenings.

Lifejackets are provided in case you take a tumble, but keeping a towel on hand can help you to warm up and dry off after a mishap.

Each canoe has two seats with backrests, making them perfect for a relaxing trip with your partner - as long as you can agree on where to go!

2. Go bouldering

Boulder UK offers over 150 unique climbs for adventurous spirits.

Challenge your partner to match your climbing speed or spot them while they aim for new heights on the wall. When you’re both worn out, you can relax and enjoy cakes and snacks from the on-site cafe.
