It was a lovely place to visit. There are several walks you can do from here. We did the meadow walk, which was beautiful. There are a lot of hard compact paths which are suitable for wheelchair users to explore the site. When we visited the mown grass paths through the meadow were hard and good for a wheelchair too, but this may not be the same after a period of rain. The information centre can advise further. The only disappointment was that the cafe is not dog friendly unless you have assistance dog. There is a serving hatch around the back of the centre, which links with the side of the cafe, that you can order food and drinks through if you are with your canine buddy. There are outside picnic type tables, but not much shade when I was there.

We've been passing this place for years, on our trips to North Wales. The sign says coaches welcome, so caravan in tow, we decided to chance it for space. Low and behold it has three large and long parking spaces, amongst many more normal car size spaces. Easy to park if your confident in reverseing in. Had a lovely cake and tea, then a relaxing walk around the paths. Large pond with lots of wild life. All paths accessable and easy to navigate. Liked it so much we called in again on our way home.. Cheesy chips and a sausage sandwich this time. The ladies serving were very helpful and kind.

We have had a brilliant day at the Discovery Centre. I went with my three year old and newborn, and their Nanas. We all had a brilliant time. We enjoyed the walk in the meadow and the play equipment. The cafe was big and had a tasty menu with good portions and great service. The mammoth museum was small but super informative and interactive, and the skeleton is amazing! The gift shop is full of gorgeous things with a great price range, my daughter bought glow stars and a rock of gold! The facilities are clean, and the staff are very friendly and accommodating (my daughter was scared of the mammoth noise so they turned it off for her). Pricewise, the museum was very reasonable but you can just do the meadow walk and use the facilities for free (carpark is £2.50), and the cafe was about £10 a plate. We'll definitely be back!

The discovery centre has nice flat land walks around it. Unfortunately dogs are not allowed inside the building which i find silly as its a main stream place for dog walkers. The cafe is good pricing and has a very varied menu. Seating inside and out, plus now they have a serving hatch so you can have take away food or drinks from outside which helps people with dogs.

Family friendly place, lovely food and beautiful grounds. Plenty for the kids to do and keep them entertained. Went twice during August - first time was quite quiet and second visit was a hive of activity as it was the Family fun day, BBQ and opening of the new wetland area Squelch. Lovely experience on both occasions, have recommended it to family and friends. Coincidental finding on our holiday travels.

Went here twice today, first time to go to the cafe, but it was full, so went to the pub next door instead. The second time we went the cafe had emptied out so I had a scone with cream and it was very nice too. There are numerous walks you can do around the centre which we tried out for a bit of exercise, but it was raining so didn't go too far. Lots to see and do, ideal place for the school holidays.
