If you love nothing more than getting out into the great outdoors, head to the superb Swanwick Lakes nature reserve or get lost in 35 acres of forest at the beautiful Holly Hill Woodland Park. Alternatively, take a trip to Manor Farm Country Park, where there’s not only acres of woodland to explore but many farmyard animals and a play area for the little ones to enjoy.

The nearby Skylark Country Club has lots to offer with its 18 hole golf course, luxurious spa and restaurant and bar offering Afternoon Tea and cocktails. As does the Whiteley Shopping Centre, with its high street shops and restaurants, and a Cineworld cinema for an afternoon in front of the big screen.
