I visited the centre due to business and found the place quite pleasing but the food was expensive. The overall ambience was an ok experience.
We went to the Forest Centre to hopefully take photographs of the wildlife. The staff on the reception were very helpful and gave us a map and directions to the lakeside hide. It was sunny to begin with although bitterley cold and unfortunately there was not alot of bird life on the lake. The hide was excellent and very spacious but we didn't stay too long as it was too cold. We will definitely return when it is a little warmer!! The paths are very well layed out and you could easily spend a few hours walking through the park. There is a shop with a good variety of gifts and a spacious restaurant. Well worth a visit.
Go here most weekends for lunch and a nice walk with the family! The service is excellent and the food great!! Would highly recommend!! We will continue to go regularly as its great for thr kids and has amazing friendly staff! Danielle and jack
A great place to walk. ride and get a lovely coffee/lunch after. Easy to get to and plenty to see and do. You are able to hire cycles and they have different events on like a farmers market and painting for sale. A great place to visit and to enjoy.
We are glad that you enjoy visiting the Centre, however we were very shocked to hear that you believe that the chicken baguette you purchased here in July gave you food poisoning – if you had made us aware at the time, we obviously would’ve conducted a full investigation into the incident. We have a 5 star hygiene rating and have never had a reported case of food poisoning in the 15 years that we’ve been open. If possible, please give our Catering Manager a call on 01234 762613 to discuss this in more detail.
lovely family park to relax and spend a few hours. quite, largely unspoilt park with easy access to walks. The lake is beautiful, take a walk around and see the wildlife.
We held my daughter's wedding here and we were blessed with a wonderfully sunny day in May with fabulous views across the lake. Nothing was too much trouble for the staff - they kept me calm (I was making the speech and a tad nervous) and just made sure everything ran smoothly. Thank you so much to the staff and I would recommend this venue to anyone else considering a location for their wedding
