Bruern Cottages

Chipping Norton, Oxfordshire

All the space of a cottage with hotel-level polish: log fires and four-posters for you, three playgrounds, a Wendy house, ride-on cars and an indoor pool for them. Brilliant for a big family get-together with grandparents in the Cotswolds. Bring the whole clan.

Days out nearby

  • Wildlife park · nearby attraction

    Rhinos grazing on the lawn in front of a Victorian manor sums up this park's charm. A narrow-gauge railway, walk-through lemur enclosure and a big adventure playground make it a relaxed family day in the heart of the Cotswolds.

  • Cotswold Farm Park ↗

    ~13 miles · ~15 mins

    Farm park · excellent toddler activity

    Adam Henson's farm showcases rare British breeds, with animal handling, tractor rides, jumping pillows and a woodland adventure trail. It is surrounded by Cotswolds villages and boutique hotels, so ideal for a weekend.

  • Warwick Castle ↗

    ~36 miles · ~45 mins

    Castle / historic · ideal day trip

    A real medieval castle where children can climb towers and ramparts, watch a giant trebuchet fire and see birds of prey swoop over the grounds. Live shows and a horrible-histories style dungeon turn history into theatre.

  • Cadbury World ↗

    ~49 miles · ~1 hr

    Indoor play / activity · rainy day option

    An interactive chocolate attraction with a ride through a cocoa-bean world, demonstrations of the real thing being made and free samples along the way. The adventure play area outside helps burn off the sugar.

  • Woburn Safari Park ↗

    ~55 miles · ~1 hr

    Safari park · ideal day trip

    Drive-through reserves with rhinos, elephants and lions, followed by a foot safari with sea lion shows and squirrel monkey walkthroughs. Good value with the indoor play area as a backup, and close to the Woburn estate.
