Here we’ve put together just a few suggestions of what is available on our doorstep – some are paid for activities, but not all, so there should be something for everyone.
And while you’re out and about why not send us your pictures showing us what you’ve been up?
Balby parents are in for a sweet treat this summer, after a local pub pledged to give away hundreds of slices of free cake to celebrate families coming together.
To mark the start of the school holidays, the Woodfield Farm Farmhouse Inns dining and carvery on Bullrush Grove will be hiding a series of ‘sunshine’ plates within its breakfast and carvery decks. Guests who find a hidden plate will be instantly rewarded with a free cakeaway - a giant slice of one of its signature cakes, freshly baked by Woodfield Farm’s talented cake-a-tier. But that’s not all. One lucky winner will receive free cake AND a cherry on top…free food for them and their family at the Woodfield Farm for a whole year! Every sunshine plate winner will be given secret access to the exclusive prize draw which will see one lucky family dine at the restaurant free for the next 12 months, with up to the value of £1,000 in gift cards for Farmhouse Inns. A limited number of the plates – which have been decorated with the emblem of a sun - will be hidden in the breakfast and carvery decks between Monday 19 July and Friday 3 September. Photo: SWNS
