Tatton Park
A thousand acres of deer park with a playground, plus a mansion, 50 acres of gardens and a rare-breeds farm bolted on. The trick is knowing the car fee covers the parkland and playground, and everything else is a separate ticket.

Eagles, owls and vultures flown close enough to feel wingbeat, at a small sanctuary that prioritises the birds over the retail. Displays run through the day.
Check flying times before travelling - they are the visit. Small, sincere and better than bigger operations at half the sincerity.

A thousand acres of deer park with a playground, plus a mansion, 50 acres of gardens and a rare-breeds farm bolted on. The trick is knowing the car fee covers the parkland and playground, and everything else is a separate ticket.

Five and a half acres at the bottom end of Tatton Mere, a public park since 1907 and two minutes from Knutsford town centre. Two play areas, one for toddlers and one for bigger children, and benches facing the water.

Knutsford's only children's play centre, a space-themed soft play between Booths and the station with a rocket, a four-lane wavy slide and a separate baby and toddler zone. Adults go free, and nothing is booked.
One email a week: what is on this weekend within a sensible drive, and the places worth booking before they go.
