Here are a couple of recommendations for you.

Tyntesfield 

Tyntesfield is a remarkable Victorian country house and estate. The property belonged to the Gibbs family and was transformed from a Georgian house to a Victorian Gothic masterpiece. The house has over 50,000 objects dating back several hundred years. Visitors to Tyntesfield can explore the spectacular house, enjoy a walk in the gardens, or explore the 540-acre estate, woodland, meadows, parkland, and much more. Tyntesfield is perfect for a family day out and has four play areas where there is something for everyone. The child-sized chicken coop in The Farm is great for kids, or you can test your balancing skills at The Orchard. The Cow Barn Coffee Shop is a great place to sit and relax over a cup of coffee and some delicious cake.

At the estate, you will see a network of rides and avenues laid out by the previous owners of the estate. You can head over to Sidelands, Truckle Wood, and Wraxall Woods to see semi-natural, ancient woodland landscapes. The estate also has a diversity of wildlife such as bats, fungi, newts, badgers, reptiles, hares and more that can be seen during day and night. Marian Nelson-Addy still remembers visiting Tyntesfield with her parents and brothers.​
