Going to Sherwood Pines and Major Oak next week.

[Ankou]

yes, have been to the pines, but my kiddywinks are too diddly for biking.
the eldest enjoyed the little adventure park thingy, but it was blinking freezing at the time.

Clumber Park is very quaint.

Only live about 5 miles from there, and walk Max there 2-3 times in a month, normally early in the morning before they get too many people about. The only thing I've got against it is that they've "tamed" it a bit too much. We used to go fishing there when I was a kid and the rhododendrens were all round the lake right down to the edge and looked fantstic when they were in flower. I know they have to try and cater for the majority but sometimes I think they go too far, it was an ideal place for kids to play in the days before computers and play stations the modern kids don't know what they're missing
