    Today I had lunch in a very nice cafe ... in one of the UK's largest cemeteries!

    There are definitely holiday activities for children, and visitor information for all.

    Three to check out: Arnos Vale in Bristol (easy to get to from Temple Meads station if you're travelling and LOTS of other fascinating stuff here), Brookwood near Woking in Surrey, and Highgate in London.

    Obviously it won't appeal to all, but a certain kind of child will love it!

    hi,
    Thank-you for all your wonderful suggestions.

    While I have been researching this subject. I have answered my own question as I have stumbled across DaysOutCo.Uk

    You can search by Postcode and distance you are prepared to travel. Or by what is on. It came up with 76 things to do within a 15 mile radius. A lot of the things are only open at certain times of the year so you need to research further.

    Now I want to visit Buckingham Palace, Bletchley Park and Tiggywinkles when they are open.

    Has anybody else come up with a good website?

    I've found a fair few ideas from the FB groups for parents in our local area - people tend to find a gem and then share it on there quite often.

    Tripadvisor has been quite good too. They do it by area rather than postcode distance. I think their app on the phone is better than the website. It has inspired me to visit things close by rather than going miles away. It will get better the more people review in future.
