This Staffordshire water park is home to epic rides ranging from toddler slides to the 375 feet of ups and downs on The Nucleus. As a result, the whole family will have some awesome activities to dive into.

The best thing about WaterWorld Stoke is that you won’t have to wait until the summer to have fun in the water. The park is indoors, making it a great option no matter the weather.

Children at a Farm Park

Ash End House Children’s Farm

Sometimes we all want to step away from the noise and the crowds of the big parks and enjoy some peace and quiet in the countryside. If this is how you’re feeling, then maybe Ash End House Children’s Farm is the place where you should spend the next Staffordshire school holidays.

This lovely family-owned farm is mostly undercover. So, you’re welcome to visit and meet the animals even on a rainy day.

Stunning Shire horses, majestic falcons, and adorable barn animals are waiting for you to come by and say hello. Furthermore, if you do visit on a sunny day there’s also an outdoor play area where the kids can run around and play.
