Somerset House
Somerset House is a vibrant cultural venue that invites families to explore art and creativity together. With activities like the Skate School for kids, it’s perfect for building confidence and having fun on the ice in a friendly atmosphere.
What parents say
Families enjoy Somerset House's ice skating rink in winter, where children use plastic skating aids, though crowds, poor ice quality, and hazards from the aids can make it challenging. In summer, kids splash in the courtyard fountains, providing a fun, free outdoor activity. Some exhibitions appeal to families, but others like themed shows disappoint with accessibility issues for buggies, stairs, and high costs on special nights like New Year's Eve.
