<\/p>\n

Here are our top five suggestions guaranteed to entertain the whole family this summer!<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Step back in time at Werribee Park & Mansion<\/strong><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

If you\u2019re looking for some open space to let the kids explore, then Werribee Park is definitely for you. With over 10 hectares of beautiful formal gardens and open space parkland they can venture round for free, this historic location is sure to impress.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

A highlight of any visit is Werribee Mansion. Built in the late 19th<\/sup> century and one of Victoria\u2019s most beautiful examples of Italianate architecture, the Mansion is open to the public for a small admission fee.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

And if you\u2019re up for it, head to the Mansion at night to experience the Haunted Tour to hear the fascinating (and spooky) stories about the founding family. Make sure you have your wits about you as the roaming theatrical performance will definitely have you asking, \u201cWhat was that?\u201d as you turn each corner.<\/p>\n
