Anyone been to Lille with DCs?

[Bramshott]

Planning a trip to Lille in September and trying to decide whether it should be just DH and I, or whether we should also take the DDs (aged 2 and 6)? We'll travel by Eurostar - not sure yet whether from Ashford or London, and spend one night there. It looks like there's a zoo, but not sure what else there is to do with kids? Anyone done it?

I've done it with DC - think they were 3 and 6 then. I didn't do anything with them but seem to remember they were okay just wandering around. But they get excited just riding on the bus . We stayed in the Olivarius aparthotel which was fine and well-priced if I remember rightly. It's not in the centre though but we had a car. HTH

I used to live in Lille - it's nice enough but there is not huge amounts for DC to do in the town centre itself, unless they like shopping!
