The Guardian is inviting readers to share their favourite summer family day out in the UK. With the school year ending, the competition aims to help families plan fun activities for the long summer ahead. The best tip, chosen by Lonely Planet's Tom Hall, will win a £200 voucher for a stay at a Coolstays property, which offers over 3,000 accommodations worldwide.
What Kind of Tips Are We Looking For?
Readers are encouraged to submit ideas for outdoor adventures, such as trips to sculpture parks, picnics by rivers, visits to small theme parks, or coastal hikes to quiet coves. The focus is on family-friendly days out that are enjoyable and accessible.
How to Enter and Prize Details
Entries should be around 100 words. While photos are welcome, the judging will be based on the written tip. The competition is open to UK residents only, and entrants must be 18 or over. The deadline is Monday 6 July at 10am BST. The winning tips will appear in the Guardian Travel section and on the website.
