Center Parcs with 15mo - is a buggy needed as well as a bike trailer?

[Fagin99]

We're going to Center Parcs next week with our 15-month old. We're hoping to hire bikes and a trailer for dd, but do you think we'll need a buggy as well? Or would the trailer be enough for getting everywhere?
She's not quite walking yet so we'd need the baby carrier if we went for a walk. We're not really planning on doing many activities. Just swimming, cycling and exploring mainly.
We've paid extra to stay near the centre, so I'm not sure if a buggy is really needed?
Many thanks - I've never been with children before.

Which one? I think that makes a difference, although with a baby carrier I shouldn’t think you’ll need one whichever park you go to.

I think you could probably do without it for the most part, especially if you have a carrier. Do think about whether you are likely to want a buggy for her to sleep in while you have lunch or a drink or whatever though. If that's not likely to be a thing then don't worry about it.

Will you be eating out? When DS was little I used to use the buggy rather than me riding a bike, but I'm not great on bikes and he hated the trailer. We used to go to Longleat which is very hilly, which also influenced my choice!

Many thanks for the replies. We're going to Elveden so thankfully very flat! Naps unlikely (sadly) unless she's in her cot, so maybe I won't bother with a buggy. I guess I can always decide once I'm there if necessary? Many thanks again!

If they won't be napping then I'm sure you could do without (if you're struggling with space in the car to bring a buggy), if they're happy in a carrier and bike trailer.

If you have the space, bring it.

I would take it. If you're not staying far from the centre it would probably be easier to walk to swimming / shops etc than having to lock up and unlock bikes. The bike trailers can probably be used as a buggy but they're pretty bulky and then you'd have to keep detaching it from the bike.

100% bring a buggy, or you’ll be carrying the child for hours a day. Have a lovely holiday, sounds wonderful!
