Visit Harewood House for a picnic this summer. The grounds are perfect for family as children can enjoy the adventure playground. | Jonathan Gawthorpe Photo: Jonathan Gawthorpe
If a rooftop terrace is more your preference this summer, visit Parkside Tavern, a lively pub that boasts 18 lines of beer, and a dedicated games room. There's four full-size pool tables, beer pong and shuffleboard, so there's plenty to keep you entertained as the night goes on. | Simon Hulme Photo: Simon Hulme
Another brilliant outdoor activity to get stuck into this summer is mountain biking. Follow trails by Leeds Urban Bike Park, in Middleton. | Simon Hulme Photo: Simon Hulme
