Here Comes Summer

At Cotswolds Designer Outlet, we’re giving shoppers even more reasons to visit this summer, as we launch our ‘Here Comes the Sun’ extravaganza, complete with new store launches and a summer-long programme of fun, freebies and seasonal entertainment.

Just weeks after the arrival of summer favourite Sunglass Hut, Molton Brown joins the luxury brand line up, opening next week with offers across its beauty, fragrance and gifting ranges.

For younger shoppers, the seaside has come inland this summer. Little guests can have a whale of a time on a specially created sandy beach, with free use deck chairs, buckets and spades provided until September. 

Our Beach

With the recent surge in temperatures, we’re working to keep its guests safe with free sun lotion stations installed with SPF 50 sun lotion offering UVA, UVB and UVC protection. We’re also working with Melanoma UK to provide educational materials to support healthy ways to enjoy the summer weather.

Adding to the excitement, guests will have the chance to test their strength against Samsonite’s famous ‘unbreakable suitcase’ challenge on various dates throughout the summer, in a fun interactive experience showcasing the durability of the brand’s iconic luggage range.

There will also be a whole host of seasonal pop-up stores, live music performances and other surprises to keep the entire family entertained all summer long!

Whats On

In addition, the end of season sale continues, with incredible offers to be found. Fashion-conscious shoppers can get ready for summer holidays with offers across leading clothing, homeware and travel brands. Sale deals include up to 60% off at Tommy Hilfiger and BOSS and up to 50% off at Calvin Klein. 

Summer Offers

Travel lovers can also take advantage of free personalisation on travel tags at Samsonite, pick up a new pair of sunnies from the recently opened Sunglasses Hut or grab a new summer holiday scent from The Perfume Shop.
