We had a fantastic, memorable family experience here! The session was very well organised and managed, the staff were very friendly and knowledgeable, the animals were all well cared for and loved, and there were lovely extra touches such as the tea and cake, feeding the other animals as well as the alpacas, and the sweet little shop of souvenirs! The booking system was straightforward and effective, with clear information on what to expect and how to come prepared, as well as reminders running up to the event. We would definitely recommend the experience!

3. National Trust Stowe

4.5 based on 1,183 reviews
The scale, grandeur and beauty of Stowe has inspired writers, philosophers, artists, politicians and members of the public from the 18th century to the present day. Since the National Trust acquired the gardens in the late 1980s, an ambitious programme of restoration has ensured that over 40 temples and monuments remain, gracing an inspiring backdrop of lakes and valleys with an endless variety of walks and trails, a delightful visit, any time of year.

These are the most spectacular gardens to visit. Be prepared to walk about 3 miles and use the map provided at the entrance to get the best experience. There is a buggy ride if you need it.After a short walk from the New Inn, you enter the gardens and are treated to a spectacular view across the lake towards the house. As you walk around the estate, you come across quirky structures, statues, glades and more. There’s a surprise around every corner. Stowe is a wonderful example of 18th century opulence- a great example of showing off about wealth , a legacy that we can still enjoy today.

I turned up expecting a small centre for wildlife rehabilitation, instead it was almost zoo sized! it was absolutely amazing! I honestly didn’t realise just how big this place is, speaking of zoo’s, tiggywinkles Centre is better than some zoo’s that I have been to. You can get right up close to the endearing wildlife within the centre such as ducks, hedgehogs, badgers, foxes, birds of prey, various deer to name a few. The staff a very knowledgeable and give talks and you can tell they are so keen about their work and the what they do for wildlife is exceptional! Its a brilliant visit set in a lovely area of England. I absolutely will be visiting again very soon. Thanks for an amazing day tiggywinkles.

Generally we go here every Sunday morning - a perfect little stroll! Lots of wild animals too so keep your eyes peeled. It’s perfect for us but a few little things to note... there is virtually no shade (not a problem today but during the blazing sun it can be scorching), there’s no litter bins (so keep hold of your litter or use the litter bin at the Waddesdon ticket office) and also watch out for some not so friendly cyclists! Everyone is very friendly with the exception of a few cyclists who clad themselves up in full Lycra (they really shouldn’t), ride road bikes and race at full speed on the path and think it’s a time trial. They really should be on the roads as opposed this beautiful little walk.

Wendover Woods is a special place in the Chilterns and is home to a variety of beautiful forest trails which boast stunning views. Offering a great day out with something for everyone, Wendover Woods has miles of walking, running and cycling trails. Encounter ancient monuments, admire the views over the Chilterns Hills and enjoy a picnic or barbecue! For the family, there’s the new accessible play trail, Gruffalo Orienteering and Zog. If you’re feeling energetic there’s also our fitness trail assault course or Go-Ape Tree Top Adventure. The Forest Centre has recently undergone a £4.5 million redevelopment. This includes a brand new car park removing traffic from the main visitor area, cafe and staffed information point to provide support for visitors. The new cafe is based in an idyllic setting and increases the space available for visitors to enjoy a drink and something to eat whilst taking in the fabulous views.

My first visit to Wendover woods,definitely not my last, what a brilliant place! Came here on New Year's Day with our daughter and completed the Farmaggedon Shaun the Sheep trail, which was about a 2.5km trek around the woods. It was lovely, dog friendly, clean toilet facilities, nice cafe and plenty to keep the little ones happy especially the play park near the information point. If you're visiting for the first time, the central part of the postcode on your sat navs takes you to the exit only part of the wood so dont drive past the big entrance sign expecting another way in, there isn't one. Secondly, you do have to pay for parking, I don't think its ridiculously overpriced but save yourself queuing at the end by downloading the Glide parking app prior to going as you can then pay once you leave via the app.
