The Jiangsu, Zhejiang, and Shanghai regions boast a treasure trove of guesthouses with private lakes

✨There are plenty of places within a 1.5-hour drive from Nanjing, and Liyang is the most visited with kids ✨This is a small city that is very close to nature, suitable for leisurely vacations with kids ✨I also really like the guesthouses here, having stayed at several with kids ✨This time, I made plans with friends to visit the Nanshan Bamboo Sea ✨Unexpectedly, the guesthouse we booked was quite fun, and we ended up soaking there for a whole day 🏡Guesthouse: Liyang Zhilan Qiuhupan Guesthouse (Nanshan Bamboo Sea Branch) ⛳Transportation: Self-driving is recommended, parking is convenient After driving a short winding road to the guesthouse, the view opens up to a lake, mountains, an outdoor swimming pool, and white buildings reminiscent of a Moroccan castle, exciting the kids I asked the housekeeper, and the lake in front of us is the guesthouse's private lake. After putting away our luggage, we took the kids to play with kayaks. The swimming pool was under maintenance and not filled with water on the day we went, but the guesthouse's lake made up for the disappointment~ 💫The guesthouse is quite large, with a hotel feel, and the service is not bad 💫The front desk offers free tea and snacks, which the kids love the most 💫Having afternoon tea by the lake while watching the kids play is a very chill summer afternoon Actually, it's less than a ten-minute drive from here to the Nanshan Bamboo Sea, but no one regretted not going, as both adults and kids were relaxed and happy. When it comes to taking kids out, a slower pace yields better results 😌 It's also suitable for a short trip during the Dragon Boat Festival holiday~
