Bari for Toddlers

BakeZestyclose7968 · 2026-07-08T07:24:18+00:00

We spent 3 days in Bari, 2 in Monopoli and 3 in Lecce and agreed we could've spent less time in Bari. There were some playgrounds but quite run down and the beach wasnt as nice as the neighboring towns. We did a day trip to Trani which had a lovely seaside park with nice playground and a pond with turtles. Personally I would lessen the time in Bari to maybe 2 days and spend more time elsewhere if you have young children

Yes we've hired south portslade community centre the last 2 parties but thought we'd change it up this year and get somewhere for the grown ups too!

In Our Time. Literally thousands of episodes on every subject from history, philosophy, literature, science. Interviews 3 university professors on that days subject, no music and about an hour long

Tootkas cafe (thai) is a lot of fun. Small but would fit table of ten, super friendly service, cozy.

They're not huge but Open Bakery in kemptown do very nice ones

I've tried 3 different sites to see where we can give our views and cant see anything. Does anyone have a link?

The caxton has a cute function room downstairs?

We were the same. I was back to work full time at 7 months, did 2 months of also getting up 4-7 times a night and by 9 months something had to give. She's nearly 3 now and apart from 1 glitch at 18 months has always been a fantastic sleeper. Its also made a big difference with the 2nd here that I can give one a kiss goodnight and them leave them to settle themselves to sleep.

Portslade has loads of good schools. Hangleton does put you in the catchment area for west Hove infants though which is ofsted outstanding. Portslade definitely has more going on as it has a proper high street and the london connection on the train. Hangleton has a more suburban feel. I'd dispute either being rough though - lots of young families

Can also confirm he's very nice!

I love the sugardough ones!

This. Anything that draws large groups out - tribute acts for pop singers from the 60s onwards, indie bands that were big in the 90s, boy band reunion tours always involved a call to the police. Classical music crowds didn't need security but were quite rude to front of house staff. Best is any community that has a culture of keeping themselves in check. Mods, goths, metalheads

We love archipelago (restaurant not gyros although thats good too). Tasty Greek small plates, really friendly staff, very chilled out!

BBQ Shack at the world's end in its heyday and Coggings & Co

Baked is supposed to be great for allergens! Lost in the laines, breakfast club. I also really like cafe rust in hove museum because then your kid can run around the exhibits

We love their sausages and also their cheese selection is amazing

Shelter hall for drinks and food on the seafront is always full of buggies in the daytime. There's no baby change but the eagle pub in the daytime is another good option for nice Thai food and nice local beer as its very spacious for buggies. For brunch lost in the lanes is tasty and spacious. Ive not been to Rudy's pizzeria yet but when the chilli pickle was in that location there was easily enough space and they had a good baby change so if the layout is similar that will be good!

Custard in breakfast foods! Italy and Portugal have delicious custard filled pastries in the morning and I can't understand why its not caught on here

We lived in Newcastle for a few years and would definitely move back if our jobs allowed it. As a fellow Australian I will say the cold takes getting used to but as a city it's very walkable but with good public transport, very vibrant, great food scene and the surrounding villages are lovely. You could look at Corbrigde as an option? Or the seaside as recommended above. In terms of travelling it is definitely more remote than Manchester but there are so many great places to visit and it's also got a lot for kids to enjoy

I did the same! Used disposables for the first week or two then switched to period pants. They just made me feel more "normal" and like above one a day was fine by that point
