Also looks quite modest compared to the Oligarch owned yachts these days.

We’ve just started our hols in Wales, couple of days in Plassey, then over to Rhosneigr and then to Bala for 4 nights. Weather looks great.

A question for the well travelled, Anglo-knowledgeable gentlemen of the parish: I have two days next week to occupy my sprogs on their summer hols. In a desperate bid to extract their faces from electronic devices, was wondering where might be good to take them for two days of interesting/adventurous excursions.
Of relevance:
- We’re based in London - due to only having 2 days, don’t really want to travel more than 3-4hrs each way (so a flight to somewhere in Scotland is fine - a drive to Snowdonia is max).
- As youngest is 6, will need a mix of casual ambling around somewhere interesting and some hiking - 2 days of solid hiking/strenuous walking won’t go down well.
Am thinking maybe 7 Sisters coastal path maybe - or a flight to Aberdeen/Inverness and something around there?
Would love to go to Snowdonia or Lake District but I don’t think we have long enough to really do either well.
Stay local and do a Go Ape day and an indoor escape game day?
Train to Margate.

This is what I was going to suggest. Two votes = mandate.

Good call, thanks. I’ve been meaning to go for a while. There’s also the Spitfire/Hurricane museum and Hornby model museum, which should be good for a boys outing.

A 3-lake hike in Ticino (Tom/Ritom/Cadagno)
The funicular railway to get up to the starting point is truly terrifying 
but the swim was wonderful.
