Hi there


I want to go away with my four year old and my Dad for a short break around 9/10 Sept before my daughter starts 'big' school...just wondered if anyone has any recommendations for somewhere not more than 2/3 hours drive away that could work as a short break with lots of things for my daughter to do/see. Ta!

But Brighton pier brilliant to spend some of your day and Aquarium very close to pier can try Marina very nice place. Good luck

Hi there, Calcot Manor in the Cotswolds is meant to be fab for kids and adults alike, ditto Ickworth in Suffolk and Wooley Grange in Wiltshire. Child-friendly details for these hotels here: http://www.mrandmrssmith.com/luxury-hotels/united-kingdom/cotswolds/calcot-manor/child-friendly and here http://www.mrandmrssmith.com/luxury-hotels/united-kingdom/suffolk/ickworth/child-friendly and here http://www.mrandmrssmith.com/luxury-hotels/united-kingdom/wiltshire/woolley-grange/child-friendly


I work for Mr & Mrs Smith, so I hope I'm not breaking any Forum rules by posting these links...

This hotel is great. Very family friendly with good family rooms. They cater for children and have a good pool and baby listening service. It's near Camber Sands (if the weather is good) or Rye which is really pretty. We have stayed there a few times.

    • Hello, Is anyone selling an iPhone 14 please?  Thank you. 
    • I may be a scrooge but to pay over £100 plus for a meal is a bit much. I understand that staff costs would be a high factor in this price and that being no transport on Christmas Day - pubs may have to pay car hire fees. The café in Christ Church will be doing a 3 course meal in the run up to Christmas for around £30 per head (Booking essential) so to charge an additional £60 plus seems somewhat unreasonable. The past few years, there have only been the 2 of us on Christmas Day, so we lash out and buy a lot of M & S food - ready prepared or with minimal cooking at a cost of between £30 and £40. We host the family Boxing Day onwards (8 - 10 people) spending around £60 on food and drink. Rather spend £100 for food etc over a couple of days rather than £200 for one meal. We are fortunate that we have the finances  to do this as many people are not able to do this. One family member with young children would find it hard to spend even £10 on a Christmas meal. Our kids come armed with plastic boxes to all family meals to take home any leftovers - so we are left with minimal waste- any veg and meat  get made into soup.
