We were given membership for Christmas and haven't made the most of it yet but wondering which national trust sites are good for children? We have a 21mo and 2mo and ideally would like those within an hour or so or ones which we could combine with an overnight stay?


Thanks

we've been to quite a few with Miss Oi (now 3.5). Most recently we went to Igtham Mote in Kent which was lovely, good grounds for her to run around in. There's loads in Kent - you should have got the handbook with your membership, or their website is very good.
We went to Chartwell, Winston Churchill's house, in Kent last weekend - just 40 mins to get there, lovely house, beautiful gardens, but check out the camps and dens (complete with hammock) in the woods, plus the rope swings from the trees are awesome! Children and adults had a brilliant time!

    • Not sure if this is exactly nature, but does anyone else have Holboellia in their garden? It's an absolute thug of an evergreen climber, and it seems to grow at about a metre a minute in all directions,  but it redeems itself at this time of year when it's flowering. The scent is absolutely wonderful, even with just a few flowers presently out, and I can even smell it inside the house. Apologies to anyone whose garden it has wandered into, but do take a moment to appreciate the scent before you cut it back!
    • I know that for some people, particularly those with small children (and possibly also those with mobility issues) the convenience of having a surgery within a very short walking distance outweighs any other considerations. Also, there is parking available near DMC for those living further away. I guess it is a matter of weighing up pros and cons. Plus, familiarity is important to some, and also many people don't realise how easy it is to change surgeries. Btw none of the above is supposed to imply that pressure shouldn't be put on DMC to improve.  Though maybe a load of their patients moving elsewhere might help focus their minds!
    • As posted elsewhere Jojm is a superb plasterer, highly experienced and very good. And will either just get on with the job or, if you wish, have a good chat with you - he's a Dubliner so very friendly! I have either used him directly (once, for a biggish job, a couple of rooms, insulated plaster boards and finishing) and twice for neighbouring landlord where I arranged and saw his work completed expertly and efficiently. Recommended. He loves dogs too. If relevant...
