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 ↗

    ~26 miles · ~45 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 ↗

    ~41 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.

  • Castle / historic · ideal day trip

    The world's oldest model village: miniature towns, a working model railway and a ride-on train children adore. Small and charming, with a playground and picnic area.

  • Odds Farm Park ↗

    ~44 miles · ~1 hr

    Farm park · excellent toddler activity

    A classic hands-on farm where little ones bottle-feed lambs, collect eggs and ride on tractor trailers, with indoor and outdoor play to fill the gaps. A gentle, easy day near Beaconsfield and the Chilterns.

  • ZSL Whipsnade Zoo ↗

    ~46 miles · ~1 hr

    Zoo · ideal day trip

    Britain's largest zoo spreads over the Chiltern hills, so elephants, rhinos and bears live in big open paddocks you can drive between or walk. The space makes it feel more like a safari, and it is an easy hop from the Chilterns or north London.

  • Woburn Safari Park ↗

    ~47 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.

  • LEGOLAND Windsor Resort ↗

    ~50 miles · ~1 hr

    Theme park · ideal day trip

    Rides are pitched squarely at younger children, so even preschoolers can do most of the park. Miniland's tiny brick cities, driving school and splash areas keep a whole day busy, and it is an easy add-on to a Windsor or Thames Valley stay.
