Best Family Resorts in London for Toddlers (Ages 0-4) (2026)
London is a city-break, not a resort trip — families are picking a home base near the Tube and the big kid-friendly sights (the Science Museum, Harry Potter Studio Tour), not a pool deck. Toddler-ready means three boring things: a calm pool entry (zero-entry beats stairs), a real crib on request (not a pack-n-play with a hard mat), and an age-appropriate kids club that takes under-4s (many don't).
