Ideas for great a summer weekend

Allison Homes summer weekend ideas
School’s out, but many parents are still working. If you’re stuck at work, how do you make the most of the time with your kids over the summer? That’s what weekends are for.

Here are a few ideas for things to do over the next six weeks of the summer holidays.

Are you a countryside enthusiast? Do enjoy country pursuits? Then the Game Fair could be just the thing for a weekend of fun and shopping. This year it is being held at Ragley Hall in Warwickshire from Friday 27 July until Sunday 29 July. There’s plenty to see and do, not just hunting, shooting and fishing. There's even a ‘Go Wild’ kids’ zone

If you have an ‘Astronut’ in the family, the National Space Centre in Leicester could be just the place for a weekend visit. The centre is open from 10:00 until 17:00 on Saturdays and Sundays throughout the summer. This summer they're taking a journey through the secret world of gases

Why not enjoy a spot of camping in the heart of England at Belvoir Castle? Located in Woolsthorpe by the Dirty Duck Public House on the Grantham Canal, it is perfectly situated for exploring the Viking Way walk and the surrounding areas.

Looking for something really imaginative to do? Go and get befuddled at BeWILDerwood in Norfolk. You’ll encounter some intriguing characters including Boggles, Twiggles, the Thornyclod Spider and vegetarian Crocklebogs, as you and your family enjoy traditional, imaginative and outdoor play together. Visit https://www.bewilderwood.co.uk/ for more details and plan your day out.

The well-known Alton Towers is a great family choice for summer holiday fun. All ages are catered for. CBeebies Land is hosting Bings’ Picnic and there’s loads on offer for older children and adults alike.

You could also head to the LEGOLAND Windsor Resort. The park is open from 09:30 to 18:00 every day throughout the summer. There is so much to see and do that you certainly won’t be bored

House hunting? Come and visit one of our show homes in Collingham, Corby or Pinchbeck near Spalding. We are open on weekends throughout the summer holidays.

Whatever you’re doing, have a great summer.
