A fantastic day out enjoying the Hawk and Owl encounter. A beautiful place in a fantastic location and an unforgettable experience with friendly knowledgeable staff Jo and Emily getting to meet lots of beautiful birds of prey and getting to fly 5 different kinds of them. The centre also does lots of well needed conservation work with wild birds of prey too. Would highly recommend and am definitely planning a return visit.

Bikes all ready to go & happy to swap one that was the wrong size. Good information about the route & perfect distance around the reservoir for the novice in our group. Beautiful spot, will come back & hope for more sun & less rain!

Was not sure what to expect after waiting for some time for this Silverstone Experience to open Very interesting to see the history how this famous circuit started. Right from what was RAF Silverstone the the very modern circuit it is today. Great exhibition with many interactive items and some great cars on show and some very helpful and knowledgeable staff. Also great coffee with with snacks.

Franklin's Gardens

Reviewed By muddyoldengr

Superb Saturday watching great rugby against Glos showcasing the international class in both sides. Good food and drink available in the behind the stand, aside choice of good quality food, and real ales direct from the cask as well; along with good humoured and friendly crowd all contribute in making this rugby club; not just a stadium. A great family afternoon.
