Moonfleet Manor
Weymouth, Dorset
Built around children rather than merely tolerating them. Rainy day? The Play Barn swallows hours with mini golf, escape rooms and a science room, while the crèche hands parents two hours to themselves each night. Outside it's Chesil Beach and the Fleet lagoon, and Abbotsbury's swannery is a short hop along the coast.
