South Yorkshire
South Yorkshire is Sheffield, Doncaster, Rotherham and Barnsley, and it has quietly built up a good spread of indoor attractions, which matters in a part of the country where the weather does not always cooperate.
We list 29 attractions across the county. The climbing centres cover the active days, the tropical and animal attractions work for a wide age range, and Sheffield's parks and museums are largely free.
Sheffield has trams as well as trains and is easy without a car. The Peak District starts on the western edge of the city, which is worth remembering on a good day.
