During half term, our Mamaventurer group took the children to the Rural Life Centre in Tilford, Surrey. We had an amazing day out, and the 1 – 4 year old children with us were engaged the whole time.
I was really surprised, actually, that we were the only people there the whole morning, and it was only as we were leaving mid afternoon that we started really seeing other people turning up! I know that if we’d driven two miles down the road to the indoor soft play centre, it would have been heaving on such an overcast and rainy day, but this day out cost us less, and was so much more pleasant!
Let me tell you about it.
The Rural Life Centre is a country life museum run by a charitable trust. It is pleasantly distributed over ten acres of field, woodland and barns, and comprises a large number of implements and devices marking over 150 years of farming. Many aspects of village and rural life are also displayed in realistic individual settings.

Looks a fab place to occupy the kids, bit far from us sadly, but if I ever visited the area I would head there, not too pricey either 🙂 x
Definitely one to bookmark if you’re in the area then. And of course you’d have to let me know so we could meet up 🙂
Looks like a lovely place to visit. We have something similar near us and it’s a popular haunt.
Sure is Mary! What’s near you then? Might be worth a visit!
