ATBShop Skate Warehouse - Swindon's only indoor Skate park. A fun place to bring your scooter or skateboard or you can hire. The park include a large street section with movable rails,grind boxes and mini ramp. The park also features a 4f extension, wall ride, "A" frame, Hubba, down rail, channel gap, fun box. The park also has a cafe serving real coffee and snacks and has a workshop and show room.
If anyone is thinking of taking up skateboarding, is a novice or a even pro then I 100% recommend you get yourself down to ATB in Swindonia. Great guys who are open, friendly and knowledgable. They made a returning-to-skating-after-25-years-old- git like me feel very welcome. The park is obviously better than my non existent skills could exploit but no one extracted the urine despite multiple slams. The outside and covered mini ramp has recently had a makeover and the ply is smooth as. It is nice and small and a perfect place to try something new without the risk of seriously damaging yourself (ish, in my case). There is loads of kit you can borrow - wrist guards, elbow and knee pads, helmets and decent full set ups. The shop is has a great array of kit so make sure you bring your wallet! If you are pretty local then it’s also worth signing up for membership as you save 2 squid a session. Finally (if you have read this far - well done you!) the social bbq’s in the summer we’re a bonus. Also my favourite price - gratis! Good work peeps. ????????

Co-Decode is an exciting and unique Live Escape Room venue located in Swindon, Wiltshire. Visit us for hand-crafted experiences, high player involvement and immersive gameplay!
My and my now fiancé played the Sub Terra room and Alex the owner helped me to integrate my proposal into the game, it was absolutely amazing and such a special moment, I truly commend the above and beyond work that Alex went through to make this extremely special for both me and my future wife. The room itself was brilliant, all the puzzles were so interesting and very well thought out, we truly felt fully immersed in the room which made the time in there even more enjoyable. I cannot recommend this place enough.

The game of Laserquest is in essence a form of Tag but with a twist! Points are awarded every time you shoot another player, with points deducted every time you are shot. At the end of each game, scores are displayed on monitors with each player receiving an individual score card that has a detailed breakdown of their points.
My son had his birthday party here a couple of weeks ago. They did the 2 hour kids club on a Sunday morning. It was great value with the unlimited games, delicious good quality cooked party food, squash drinks, birthday cake and party bags

Lydiard Park is a beautiful historic estate on the western edge of Swindon, with the Palladian House, Church and Walled Garden, set in 260 acres of parkland. The children's play area, Cafe & Tea Rooms, events and education programmes make Lydiard Park a great destination for a family day out.
Lydiard Park is a great facility to have on our doorstep, boasting lovely walks, lots of outdoor space for exercise or relaxing and very good playground facilities. There's plenty of history in the house and various artefacts, such as the old ice house and good catering options available. Well worth a visit!

This museum is a must for any steam heads or fans of railways and locomotives! Situated in the old GWR works in Swindon, right next to the new outlet shopping centre it is perfectly located for ease of access! The museum is full of exhibits and hands on activities that charts the history of the GWR and the role of Swindon in the railways from inception up to the present day! Information is clearly displayed and presented in an easily digested format that gives you just enough to come away having learned something, but not too much that you loose interest. However, what most people will come for are the static exhibits and trains themselves, of which there are plenty to look at! From small practical tank engines to the more famous crack express trains the museum houses them all in context surrounded by authentic paraphernalia from the period in question! Of particular note are the King Class: George V and City Class: City of Truro (first train to do 100mph) our of which are on loan from the National Railway Museum! Highlights and plus points: Excellent attractions Loads to see and do Family friendly Accessible to all Trains galore Perfect for anyone Near to the shops Negative points: Not enough time in the day to see everything! Overall highly recommended, it’s a must see and do and you will not be disappointed!

Large lake to walk around, going through woody areas so nice & cool on a hot day plus large open grass areas suitable for picnics. Theres a small cafe & toilets which are open plus a play park but that's closed at the moment. Plenty of swans, geese & ducks to feed. Popular with dog walkers & cyclists. Theres a large car park which has an overflow area on a field for busy times & costs £1 for 2 hours. Great place for families with small children.
