Castle Bromwich Hall Hotel
WHERE
Birmingham
What it’s like
A stay-over rather than a day trip, in a historic house hotel with cots for the little ones and dogs welcome in your room.
This one is less about what the kids do on the day and more about where you all sleep afterwards. Castle Bromwich Hall Hotel is set up for families staying over rather than visiting for an afternoon, with cots or zbeds available for an extra £20 if you need one in the room. There's no ride, maze or activity described on the site, so don't come expecting entertainment laid on for children. What you're paying for is the historic house itself as a backdrop.
Rooms are guaranteed ready by 3pm, which matters if you've got a car full of overtired kids and want to get straight in rather than kill an hour in the car park. Check-out is 11am, and they're not shy about charging £10 an hour after that, so a lazy Sunday lie-in is going to cost you if you overrun. Worth building that into your plans rather than finding out at the desk.
There's a restaurant on site, though the small print is mostly about where dogs can't go rather than what's on the menu, so it's fair to assume this is proper hotel dining rather than a kids' menu with crayons. If you're bringing the family dog, it can stay in your room for £20 and is welcome in the lounge bar, just not the main dining room at mealtimes.
Accessible double bedrooms are available in both the main house and the annex, with disabled parking bays close by. It's a smoking-free hotel throughout and they mean it: a £200 deep clean charge lands if they find evidence otherwise, so keep that in mind if anyone in your party sneaks off for a cigarette near an open window.
