Things to see and do with kids in Bath

For such a historical destination, Bath may not be the first place one thinks of when planning a family holiday with young kids, but there is more than meets the eye in the beautiful city of Bath for children on holiday to enjoy.

A must is a visit to Longleat where everything a kid could wish for can be found from miniature railways to elephants and zebras, while outdoor activities for kids include visits to the Cricket St Thomas Wildlife Park to discover exciting wild animals, the Cheddar Caves and Gorge to see how cavemen really survived, or take energetic kids on the Huntfun Bath Treasure Hunt where they'll love beating their parents to solve the clues!

On days when the weather doesn't play along and outdoor activities with children are not an option, head to one of the many indoor playground dotted throughout the city such as Noah's Ark Zoo Farm, which features nine different indoor and outdoor playgrounds, or the Panda-Monium Indoor Play Centre which features, slides, swings and ropes and enough space for kids to run around.
