Part of a hotel just outside Bath, this is a grown-up sort of place that still makes room for children — high chairs are on hand, there's a kids' menu and vegan options, and free parking means you're not circling the city centre with a car full of tired children. The dining room stays fairly quiet, staff are warm with little ones (one family found the team especially attentive to their one-year-old), and buggy access is straightforward. The garden terrace is the reason to come in warm weather; families describe it as feeling almost Mediterranean. Afternoon tea draws the most praise — generous jam and cream, savoury pastries and a very good Bath bun — and dietary requirements are handled well with a day's notice. Worth knowing: book ahead, flag any occasion or dietary need clearly, and don't assume the indoor Winter Garden is available, as it can be reserved for hotel guests.

A little something creative for your next meal out. Filled with colouring, simple drawing prompts for cute animals, origami and conversation starters designed to bring more play, laughter and connection to the table. 3 free printable packs for toddlers, preschoolers and primary-aged children.
