Kenwood (by Hampstead Heath) - okay for kids?

[CruCru]

This is close(ish) to me. I have a 2.9 year old DS and an 8 month old DD. Is it worth taking them here or will it be a nightmare? It looks like they have a nice garden.

I don't think the garden itself is too large, it's more that it is on the heath and so on, lots of places to walk. Main concern might be transport, it is not that near a Tube really, so buses might be a better bet.

I suppose you could go on Google Maps and have a look around virtually. The house was refurbished this year so looks good, I imagine. There is a dining room/canteen in Kenwood House, bit noisy but sunny outside spot too.

It's just a tidier part of the Heath, really. Not particularlyly exciting for dc unless they simply like the space.

Go to Golders Hill Park instead. It's on the west of the Heath. Woodland, grassland, playgrounds, sandpits, and animals.
