Shed in the Woods manual of our recommendations
Sightseeing
This is such a great day out that caters for families or couples. It has some really fun cycle paths for all abilities - you can hire bikes for all ages.
Immerse yourself in the wood for a fabulous walk and take a picnic, or there is a cafe there to get food.
Great for families - it has a really good family playground trail and natural playground. It also has a kids Go Ape and an adults version.
Entrance is based on the car parking - around £12 per car but it is well worth every penny.

This is a 13 mile round trip if you fancy a cycle, walk or run!

We love this place for several reasons. Firstly, it is a fabulous place for children to learn about science. The halls are lined with hands on machines and bits and bobs that teach you about anything from the solar system to friction. But done in a kind of 'last decade' kind of way.
Even outside there is some great outdoor equipment that kids will think is playing with water but is actually the archimedes screw.
Every hour there is a talk about the one of the telescopes, which is fascinating and they do have occasional evening events to star gaze.
If, like me, you are into mid-century architecture, the building is a treat too.

If you have young children this is one of the nicest small zoos I have been to.
The layout of Drucillas is half zoo half play park. This way the children can keep their interest for the animals and then let off steam in the end.

This is an unusual place set in the grounds of a lovely house. It has an 'enchanted forest' vibe and as you walk the trail you encounter a pirate ship climbing frame, giant swings, treetop walks and lots more. Also look out for the 'Zedonk' - half donkey, half zebra...it is actually a thing!
During the holidays they usually have a themed event where they hire actors that dotted around the site and keep the theme alive. Great for an age range from 3-8.
My only negative is the cafe there. Terribly overpriced and terrible food to match. Take your own would be my advice as the place is great fun.

Great Dixter is an historic house, a garden, a centre of education and a place of pilgrimage for horticulturists from across the world.

A unique woodland the is run by an alternative family who participate in the stewardship of the woodland and creative projects. There is currently a small serving hatch for refreshments, and they ask for a small donation towards the upkeep of their forest. You can observe the projects and they have a lovely mud kitchen and play structures for children.

A lovely destination that has something for everyone. Great gardens to explore, along with the main house, then you can hire a boat on the it's lake or it has a really great castle play structure for children.
It's not a cheap day out as the entrance is quite pricey but you do get a lot for your money.
It does have a restaurant / cafe to get food or there is a decent pub on the corner called King Henry Vlll with a garden which you can come out and go to as another option.

A really lovely and unique cafe set in lovely woodland. It has the best vistas as it is built like a giant treehouse.
The food is very good too. It is a day-time place, and is used often as a unique location hire for weddings and parties.
There are good mountain biking tracks and you can have a nice wonder around the forest afterwards.
