There’s something about autumn that makes curling up with a really good book even more appealing. As the evenings get darker and the weather gets cooler, it’s the perfect excuse to slow down, switch off and get lost in a new story. Whether you’re shopping for yourself, encouraging the children to read more or looking for a new bedtime favourite for little ones, Waterstones at The Baytree has plenty to discover this autumn.
Autumn is a lovely time to introduce babies and toddlers to the magic of books. From colourful board books and touch-and-feel stories to familiar characters and bedtime favourites, there are plenty of books designed for little hands.
For children beginning to discover the joy of reading for themselves, there’s a whole world of adventures waiting on the shelves. From funny stories and colourful characters to magical adventures and illustrated favourites, finding a book they genuinely enjoy can make reading feel less like homework and much more like fun.
As the nights draw in, it’s the perfect time for older children and teenagers to get stuck into a new series. Whether they love fantasy, mystery, adventure, romance or something completely different, Waterstones has plenty of page-turners to keep them entertained throughout those cosy autumn evenings.
Autumn reading isn’t just for the kids! There’s nothing quite like finding a book you can’t put down and settling in for a quiet evening. From gripping thrillers and bestselling fiction to romance, biographies, cookbooks and the latest must-reads, there’s something for every taste. And for the men who might not consider themselves big readers, why not try something based around a favourite interest? Sport, history, music, true stories, biographies and crime are all great places to start.

Feeling like September arrives all of a sudden? One minute we’re enjoying sunny days at The Baytree Beach and a summer packed with free weekly events, and the next there’s a chill in the air, the evenings are getting darker and it’s time to start thinking about those extra layers. As we say goodbye to summer, the change of season is the perfect opportunity to give your wardrobe a little autumn refresh. It doesn’t have to mean replacing everything, sometimes just a few new pieces can make your wardrobe feel fresh and ready for the months ahead. ✨
Perhaps it’s a new jacket for the cooler weather, a cosy knit, some new accessories or versatile layers that can help take your favourite summer pieces into autumn. If you fancy a browse, Fashion Avenue and Merab are great places to discover something new, while Poundland is ideal for picking up those affordable seasonal essentials including a new pair of cosy, fluffy socks. 🧦
And while the summer holidays have come to a close, there’s still plenty to look forward to at The Baytree Shopping Centre. After a fantastic summer of activities and fun at The Baytree Beach, September brings another chance to get out and enjoy everything the centre has to offer. On Saturday 19th September, the Local Artisan Market returns from 10am until 4pm, bringing together a brilliant selection of local makers and small businesses. It’s the perfect opportunity to have a browse, discover something a little different and support local while you’re visiting the centre. 🙌
Whether you’re looking forward to wrapping up in warmer clothes, planning an autumn shopping trip or popping along to the Local Artisan Market, there are plenty of reasons to visit The Baytree this September.🛍️
A new season doesn’t need to mean a whole new wardrobe, sometimes one new favourite is all you need. 🍂
