We have tried to find gardens that would keep your children interested, amused and may even wear them out a bit!
Garden features we find work best are those with kids trails, adventure parks, sculptures you can touch and climb on. And maybe even model railways!
Or gardens with animals such as alpacas, deer, owls, sheep or more wildlife like otters, badgers, rabbits, pondlife and bees.
Some gardens have children’s play areas and others are suitable for those with pushchairs or buggies.
