Wokefield Park near Reading is 17 miles from Legoland.
Not sure if that is the closest, but if you go to 'find out more' and then 'local attractions' it shows you a map with details.0 -

Many thanks OP, booked 3 nights at Theobalds Park for Sister in Law and hubby as a present for their 30th Anniversary ( 2 nights at £10 and the sat night at £29). They now live in Canada and are coming over to stay with us and the rest of the family in London, so are delighted at this treat.0

Sunningdale Park (Ascot) is the one we booked and is the closest I think as they advertise Legoland packages on the page, though any of the Berkshire ones would do.
This is such a great deal... got another 3 nights booked in Cheshunt for the same week now to do some London things!0 -
Just booked a Premium Room for two nights at Shaw Ridge, Swindon, £10 per night, 20-22 March. Four choices of £10 double rooms: twin, double or family standard rooms, or Premium rooms.
I found it was worth putting your dates in, and seeing what there is, as the rooms often cost less than the headline price on the link, eg Chesham said £49 but was in fact £29 for the Saturday night when you progressed the enquiry, which coupled with the available £10 Friday night was not bad at all at £39 for two nights. Similarly, the Swan/Mill at Oxford came up at £29 a night on the Fri/Sat I looked at, not the higher price first stated.A chicken crossing the road is poultry in motion0 -

It's so lovely there...we have stayed twice!:p
We stayed the last time in the Mansion House as an upgrade, and it was grand, the room was huge! And we had his n hers sinks...lol
The time before we were in the ridings which was new then, but I believe they have developed it since then.
Hope they all enjoy it, plus tell them to look out for the baby deers and rabbits running about the grounds:D
I booked another night there too at the £10.00 it's such a bargain....;)0 -
