When the sun is shining there is nothing better than meeting friends for a drink in your favourite beer garden.
When you have kids, it is not always as easy as dropping everything for an al fresco pint, however if the pub has a play area or play equipment it does make life a little easier for parents who want to enjoy the weather and keep the children entertained.
Across Northamptonshire there are plenty of pubs that have large gardens, which include a children’s play area.
From village locals, to town pubs the county has a lot to offer and at many of the venues you can enjoy a drink a meal – some of which include carveries – all while your kids wear off some energy on outdoor play equipment.
Here are 12 beer gardens in Northamptonshire that have outdoor play areas for kids.
