We all know that spa breaks in Bath are fantastic for mums and dads, but if you’re wondering what the city holds for young children then you’re about to be even more impressed. Aside from the many family attractions to discover in and around the city (and it’s worth bearing in mind that many of the landmark days out aim to be as engaging as possible for younger visitors) you’ll also find a selection of soft play areas for tots too.

From play barns to activity centres, the selection includes all kinds of things to keep tots entertained on wet weather days, and they’re great for those times when the children just need to let off steam for an hour or so. Baikbrook Lodge welcomes children and cots can be added to any of its eight bedrooms, and the staff will be more than happy to suggest days out aimed at young families keen to explore the city.

Every bedroom in the hotel has an en-suite bathroom, and they’re also equipped with handy features such as DVD players (a selection of DVDs is available) perfect for cosy evenings in as a family.
