The nights are drawing in and as it’s getting colder, it’s getting more and more appealing to find someone to cuddle up to.











You’ve seen that person on Flirtify and keep going back to look at their profile, but for some reason you haven’t said anything yet. You haven’t quite found the right words. Well, we’re about to give them to you. Open a chat and offer up one of these irresistible autumn date ideas and they won’t be able to say no.

Brace yourselves and get outdoors





A walk in the countryside





The countryside is stunning at this time of year. Wrap up warm and go on a little walk to get to know each other somewhere pretty. You’ll most likely get bonus points if you bring your dog too.









Fruit picking

Apples are perfect this time of year. Find yourself an orchard that’s open to the public and try this. It’s a bit different, it’s something to focus on so the date isn’t too intense. And you can go home and make an apple pie to warm up afterwards.









Maize Maze

There’s a few of these around the country. It’s a fun activity where you go into a maize in hopes of finding the centre. It encourages teamwork or competition depending on which way you approach it. Both are fun ways to spend your date.









Star gazing

Is there anything more romantic?! Bundle up, get in the car out to the country where there’s no street lights, lie down and look at the stars together. Make up names for the constellations. Or just name them if you actually know them. Take a flask and enjoy each other’s company.









Or warm up instead with some food or drink





Cook dinner together

Granted, this might be a second or third date sort of thing, but it can work as a first date too. It’s not too intense if both of you are cooking rather than just one person. And with any luck you’ll have something you both like to eat by the end of it. Plus you learn A LOT about a person when you cook with them…









Hot chocolates

Possibly one to follow on from an outdoor activity. There’s nothing more warming than a hot chocolate. Particularly one with a little splash of something alcoholic in there. Get a takeaway and head back out to the cold, or make one at home and snuggle up by the fire to warm up.









Bake together

It’s cold. The Great British Bake Off is back on our televisions. There’s no better time to get in the kitchen and try your hand at baking. It’s something fun that you can work on together, and if it all goes well, you’ll have something delicious to enjoy in the end too.









It’s cold outside. Best to stay in





Movie night

There’s not much better than movie night. Especially when you’ve got someone to cuddle and fight over the popcorn with. Why not go for a Halloween themed movie night? It’s the right time of year for it, and it gives you an excuse to smoosh up even closer during the scary bits.









Make a fort

If someone says they don’t want to build a fort with you, they’re either lying, or not worth bothering with in the first place. Have dinner or watch films in there. You’ll have a lot of fun working together to build it, and it’s nice to have your own little den to get to know each other.









Go for a drive

You have to go outside to get to the car, but get the heating on, drive down a little country lane and you’ll get the beautiful scenery as well as the warmth. And for some reason, it’s a lot easier to talk to someone in a car, right?









Pumpkin carving

Do one together or make it into a competition, taking part in an activity like this on a first date means you’ve both got something to concentrate on aside from each other, making it less intense. It gives you something to talk about without even trying to think of anything. It will also get you into the Halloween-y spirit if you’re thinking about watching some spooky films afterwards.









So what are you waiting for? We've done all the hard work for you. Pick one of these, ask the question and before you know it, you could be baking a pie with freshly picked apples with the person of your dreams. And maybe eating it in a fort.
