    Default UK long weekend recommendations please?

    Don't think we're going to make it overseas this year, so looking to do a few long weekends if possible, most with our 6 year old boy, but hopefully at least 1 for just the 2 of us, nudge, nudge, wink, wink!

    York's a definite as I think he'd love Jorvik and the railway museum, probably the Lake District and South West Scotland too, any other recommendations please? Travelling from the North East, so no more than 3 hours away in a car, as he'd be to take away if it was any longer, lol!

    Default Re: UK long weekend recommendations please?

    for me its centre parks in Sherwood, about 2 hour max from Hartlepool, great to relax, lots for the kids, all day pleasure pool with wave machines, coffee shop & food, my kids spend most of there time in it.
    plenty off restaurants & bars. a bit over priced but we enjoy it, we go 2-3 times a year. with & without the kids,
    York is great place, we have done it a few times, we enjoyed the Yorvik @ £30 for family(4) ticket, Yorvik + Dig £45.
    railway museum is free entry, great for your 6 year old.
    we did Windermere a few years back, a lot of walking from place to place, my son was 6 daughter was 11, they didnt enjoy the walking but the slept like a log lol.

    Thanks to WRATH OF BOD
