Great place for a walk at any time of year, particularly in early spring when it is carpeted in snowdrops. A fiendish maze will keep everyone occupied for a while!

Georgian stately home with impressive gardens and lakes open during the summer (check website for seasonal opening dates and times). It also has an amazing adventure playground to keep children of all ages occupied for hours. It’s about 40 minutes drive from Lower Mill, but well-worth the trip.

Originally a Benedictine monastery, this incredible building is well worth a visit. Pevsner described the Norman tower as “probably the largest and finest Romanesque tower in England”. Tewkesbury is also a very pretty town with a number of other attractions, including the John Moore Museum.
