The Lakes by Yoo
Lechlade, Gloucestershire
Self-catering freedom with hotel extras. Bag a lakeside cabin, let the kids paddleboard and zip-wire their way through the day, then everyone flops in the spa pool at family swim time. Spa access comes with the stay, and the Cotswold Wildlife Park is a short drive when you fancy rhinos.

Days out nearby
Cotswold Wildlife Park and Gardens ↗
~8 miles · ~15 mins
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.
~22 miles · ~30 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.
~48 miles · ~1 hr
Zoo · ideal day trip
Bristol's zoo moved to open woodland on the city's edge, so animals such as gorillas, okapi and red river hogs have far more room. Children get woodland trails and big play spaces, and it fits easily into a Bristol or Bath weekend.
~50 miles · ~1 hr
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.
~50 miles · ~1 hr
Science centre · rainy day option
Bristol's hands-on science centre with hundreds of interactive exhibits and a 3D planetarium. Great on a wet day during a Bristol or Bath weekend.
~50 miles · ~1 hr
Castle / historic · ideal day trip
Brunel's iron ship sits in a dry dock with a glass 'sea' you can walk beneath, and children can climb the rigging, explore cabins and smell the galley. Immersive history right on Bristol's harbourside.
~52 miles · ~1 hr
Safari park · ideal day trip
Driving through the lion reserve with monkeys clambering over the car is a childhood memory in the making. Beyond the safari there is a hedge maze, an adventure castle playground, boat rides and the stately house itself, enough for two full days.
