If you are not familiar with the area, then we have got it covered. For families, couples or for the solo adventurist, check out our top list of things to do in Milton Keynes to keep you entertained.
Swing for it at Mr Mulligan Adventure Golf
Get ready to tee up for a fun time with the family at Mr Mulligan’s, which has both an outdoor and indoor crazy golf venue. Open to all age groups, the indoor location boasts two courses, ‘under the sea’ and ‘enchanted garden’ complete with neon colours and bold structures. There is a restaurant and bar so you can refuel after the adventure and ‘kids eat free’ between 12-4pm with any paying adult. If you prefer to play outside, then head to their other venue with your matey and work your way round the pirate island – aye aye captain!

Learn at Milton Keynes Museum
During the half term, MK Museum is hosting five days of activities for young visitors. At the new pond your little ones can watch the tadpoles swim around before making their own frog life cycle wheel or they can make their own hot buttered toast in the farmhouse kitchen. Head to the Connected Earth gallery where your kids can learn about Morse code and play at being a switchboard operator. There is lots to see and do, and at £7.00 for children aged between 5-12 it is money well spent.
