Family days out in the Lake District & Cumbria

Things to do with Kids in the Lake District & Cumbria

If your children are happy then everyone is happy and Cumbria’s Living Heritage members offer a range of activities for all ages from toddlers to teens. From hands-on museums, interactive trails and adventure playgrounds we have lots of ideas to keep your kids entertained which won’t break the bank.

You can discover ghostly secrets, draw, paint or write at creative workshops, play hide and seek in the grounds of a stately home, get up close and personal with owls, clamber through the trees and much more.

We recommend checking out these attractions if you have children to entertain.
