Day trip for toddler in Bedfordshire?

[unicorn79]

Hi all
Having a trip to Sandy Bedfordshire tomorrow to look at a car (coming from South London). Looking for a nice trip afterwards in the area with our 21 month old. She likes playgrounds and open spaces and farms… also somewhere to stop for lunch would be good maybe a pub with garden with play area?

Rspb in.sandy? It's got lovely walks but also a natural "playground" area with dens and stepping stones etc

Herrings Green Farm

Shuttleworth has good play area, cafe and gardens

Herrings Green falconry centre - nice playground hits and llamas etc too
Wrest Park if you have English Heritage (you need to book)
Mead Open Farm
Stand-alone Farm
Bedford Park is nice - 2 play areas there and big wide paths
Barton Le Clay nature reserve and springs
Sharpenhoe Clappers (national trust, big fields on a hill to run round and a woodland)

Bedford park has a cafe as does wrest park.

Mead Open Farm is great.
Woburn Safari Park
Willen Lake in Milton Keynes

Wimpope Hall - about 25 mins drive.
Has a great farm and park. Is National Trust though the farm bit is extra.

That should say Wimpole!

Thanks so much everyone, mumsnet is the best!
