Sorry for the vague 'mumsy'!! Basically I want somewhere I can take my mum (and 3 kids!) tomorrow. She's working on Sunday so I thought I'd take her out tomorrow instead.

What type of mumsy mum is your mum honeyb? You could take her to graves park with a picnic depending on the weather. Or what about for a carvery? They are sometimes cheaper on every other day then sunday. There is the alpaca place in sheffield that has a cafe. I think its up Dore way. Im sure there is a website.

Thanks for the ideas. I don't think the sculpture park would interest the kids :(. I knew there was an alpaca place at Grenoside but I didn't know you could visit. That might be something I save and take my 2 year old to in a few weeks, she'd love it :)

Hinchliffes Farmshop near Honley is also worth a visit, farm shop and buchers is a wow factor with about 12 butchers serving and you must try their award winning pork pies! There is a restaurant/tea rooms + kids can feed the chickens and see all the other animals on the open farm. We love taking a trip there!
