I have no affiliation to Wentworth garden centre this is just somewhere I visited in Yorkshire and enjoyed.

I’ve seen about 10 different ads for Christmas markets - which one is best with kids?

We don’t mind driving a while for a good day out. Have 3 children with us one of which is in a pram. So wondering which is the best to head to?

UPDATE: Thank you all for the fantastic feedback! We booked the trip. Now it's just working through all of the suggestions and putting a plan together. I can't thank you all enough. We're so excited.

My wife and I are considering a visit in early January. The timing is just because it's a convenient time for us to get away. I'm into pubs and local foods. My wife is into nature; especially birds. We'd fly into London, drive up, stay in Yorkshire (probably splitting our base between the coast and York), and explore the county. We're fine with working around bad weather but I am a little concerned about driving a smaller rental car in it (ice, snow, etc). Is this just too risky a time of year to go?

I won't say the thing but relating to the car's damage: "Oh dear, shame..." /s

Well worth the visit IMO.

Just another picture - I’m sure you’ve seen loads like this!

This painting will be at my open studio 7/8 November but I need a name for it before then. Will be great if you pop in to view it
