Popular at any time of day - Food is unadventurous but decent family fayre - and the prices are reasonable. It's a good spot for a family brunch - but be warned, the service is pleasant but very slow

Entertainment & Activities
Great park - something for everyone but the children's play area is superb and the 'bike' hire is fun. The small zoo is also fab for young kids. Go Ape is opening this summer for older kids.

Inexpensive soft play cafe for young children (under 6s). There is a variety of toys and equipment and plenty of books, newspapers and quiet-ish lounging space for parents. The cafe isn't bad.

Just 5 stops on the train (15m) so don't be put off by the location - it has a huge wave pool and slide, so is great for a family swim.

Wonderful open space - feels like being in the country, lots of deer. Great for picnics and tree-climbing. Make a day of it - amble along the riverside in Richmond, then head to town to shop & eat!

An absolute must for all ages - but spend time in the city getting your bearings first as its fun to spot all the places you've visited from the pod. Early evening is a great place to go - book ahead
