Dating as a single parent can be hard but, the UK’s first dating app aimed solely at single parents, is aiming to make this as easy as possible.  One way that they are doing this is by creating a top 10 list of the best locations in the UK to go on a family date. 

The list includes Poole Harbour plus a number of the country’s top venues and attractions as well as a few more slightly unusual choices.

This list has been created by the team at Playdate who asked users of the app and social media followers for suggestions as well as throwing in a few of their own.

This list includes both family friendly venues where you can bring the kids along as well as venues that are great for adults only! We hope you find it useful!

The list in full is

1 If you want to enjoy some culture on your date the V&A Dundee is the perfect place to visit.  Having opened in 2018, this stunning building houses the best in Scottish creativity and design. 

2 The Im a celebrity at Media City UK, Manchester offers fun for all the family.  Just watch out for the bushtucker trials!

3 The Shard – Offering amazing skyline views of London, you can enjoy a meal or simply enjoy the brave the heights!

4 Poole Harbour in Dorset is Europe’s largest natural harbour and is a great location for many activities.  As well as partaking in various watersports, you can also take in the beautiful scenery whilst enjoying a walk.

5 If you are looking to include pre-teens in a family date, Eureka, the national children’s museum, in Halifax is a great choice.

6 If you like energetic and action packed dates, Mountain Bike Wales can certainly supply that with events and activities taking place throughout the year.

7 Enjoy the views from Primrose  in London. 

8 York is an amazing city to visit and well known for its history but did you know it’s also famous for chocolate, and who doesn’t love that!  Chocolate story is a must for anyone with a  sweet tooth!

9 Sometimes you might want a date without the kids and where better than the UK’s top restaurant in Cartmel.  If you want to bring along the kids, the restaurant accepts children aged 6 and above at lunch and 12 and above at dinner.

10 For something a little different but still a lot of fun, how about taking a punt on a trip to Oxford?  With Punting you can take to the water and explore this beautiful city.

Nevine Coutry, founder of Playdate, comments “Across the country you have so much choice for both romantic dates and family friendly dates. These are some of our favourite spots and I am so pleased to see that our users agree!”
