After going out to the Lavender Field, we went to the Hemitage Rd. Bar and Restaurant! This place had some really quite upscale, lovely food and I am so glad Dann picked it out. I look forward to going back, as I really enjoyed the food that much. The boost upscale pizzas, steaks, ribs, burgers and more. We ended up getting two mains, a side to split, and were very full by the end of our meal.
I am pretty sure we have gone to every dinosaur golf park now, within the UK! Mini-golf is one of those things that everyone seems to enjoy. You can decide if your family wants to take things seriously or if you want to give out re-dos and ditch the score sheet. Now that Robin is a bit older, we actually do keep score, but give everyone generous scoring. As the Dinosaur Safari Adventure golf had opened back up, we decided to give this place a go!
Hertfordshire offers a wide variety of things to do and places to see. Visitors can choose from charming villages, glorious countryside, historical buildings and boutique shops and restaurants. There are also plenty of family attractions, such as theatres, zoos, parks and museums.
Whether you are visiting for the day or you are planning a weekend break, there are so many places to discover in and around Hertfordshire. To help you plan your next family day out (or adult only escape!) in Hertfordshire, here are my top five things to do…
The children seem to really enjoy themed adventure golf and Mr. Mulligan’s has an indoor golf course, something we’ve never been out too. Seeing that the weather is cold and somewhat rainy, an indoor course is just what we were looking for! We ended up opting for the one in Stevenage which has a giant submarine on the top of the building, which is really cool to see from the outside.
Once inside, we had the option of one of two courses; an easier, under the sea course or a more challenging jungle themed course. As Robin is three and most of the time can be found kicking the ball with her feet or just dropping it into the end hole after giving up, we decided to go into the under the sea area. This was themed with mermaids, octopuses, sea creatures and had a boat of it’s own. The course itself was quite compact, which is the main downside of being indoors. Many of the holes were right on top of each other, which meant that it was hard to find a place to stand while someone was taking their turn or while waiting.
Now that the weather is great and the flowers are blooming, we took a trip to the Hitchin Lavender Field! Neither of us have ever been to a lavender field before, but we wanted to walk in the sea of purple fields and hang out together. It seemed like a great day to spend a lazy afternoon, so we headed off to explore and enjoy the nice sunny weather! We did book ahead, making sure we had tickets and could go on in, and then appeared for our time slot.
