Inverness in the rain

[Searchfornessie]

Hello, I’m hoping the lovely Mumsnetters of Scotland can help.

Heading to Inverness for the long weekend and just checked the forecast for Saturday. Looks rubbish!

Does anyone have suggestions for a few things to do on the Saturday? We have a 5 and a 2 year old. Staying very central but no car. Not opposed to sticking the waterproofs on for half a day but would prefer not to spend all day soaking wet.

We've booked a boat/castle trip for Sunday and thankfully the weather looks dry for that day.

Thanks very much!

Ice rink? Swimming pool? Cinema?

Swimming pool is a good idea, they both like swimming. Will look into options. Thank you.

Swimming pool a good idea, it's a great pool and there is a glass house place near the carpark that might be okay for a wander through and i think it has a cafe. Cinema is also in the town centre and there is a shopping centre you can wander in, haven't been for years so no idea what is open in there now. If it's not too bad then there is a great play park (Duthies park?) that has a duck pond (maybe boating?) and used to have a mini steam train you could pay to ride on.

It's Whin Park i'm thinking of. It's near the pool and the botanic gardens so could be a good area to spend the day.

Thank you @BinBandit will check that area out.

There's a trampoline place and also lola and something place which is indoor soft play
