An easy park day with a toddler play area, big lawn and river paths, plus shops and food close enough for emergencies.

Big open lawns and shady paths make this especially good for a low pressure picnic day with room to run.

Best for kids who want to move, with wide paths, sports fields and enough space for scooters, bikes and a long run.

Right by the park with lots of vegetables, sandwiches and familiar brunch food, so it is easy to combine with a run around.

The apple pie is the reward, but pasta and other familiar dishes make this a straightforward meal with cautious eaters.

Doraemon fans get original art, a museum only movie and character spots outside, but you do need to book a timed ticket.
