Babbs Mill Lake

Reviewed By stevecP7668AX - Birmingham, United Kingdom

This really is a little gem. A beautiful lake and nature reserve. We had a lovely walk around the trail and have also visited for a bat watching tour organised by Solihull MBC. This was amazing as within minutes of being handed our bat detectors it felt like we were surrounded by them. Definitely worth joining an organised tour.

Elmdon Park

Reviewed By MCgbell

Gorgeous walks around a huge park with lake. There are swans, ducks and geese.There is a small pier where children and people feed the ducks. It's got a hill which is a climb up to a church. There is a walled garden at the top of the hill.( Difficult to find ) Sledging in this park when it snows is a delight. There is a small Brook that goes through the park with three little bridges going over. The park has a play area and tennis court. Although nets are often broken.

Umberslade Farm Park

It was one of the coldest, wettest miserable days so far but a 5 th birthday party at the farm provided such amazing exceptional experiences that the weather was soon forgotten. Lauren , our party planner was brilliant, she engaged the children throughout the session, she was knowledgeable and encouraging, enabling everyone to be involved with feeding the pigs, chickens, collecting the eggs, grooming the ponies, she passed small animals around giving the children the opportunity to experience handling, rabbits, guinea pigs, fancy rats and newly hatched chicks. During the tractor ride we travelled along the drive; due to the wet weather the usual route was impassable; this was so much fun particularly passing the many Halloween guys, going through the flood that many happy screams were heard. The farm is very well arranged but not overly friendly for pushchairs . It's compact enough for little legs not to get too tired, there's lots of stimulating extra areas, push around tractors for under 3 s etc. There's a newly built indoor fun centre. The farm created the party by providing the lunch boxes, the party bags and tea and coffee for the adults. It was clean, safe and had many washing hands areas. It's a totally different experience and most memorable, well worth a try.

Heronfield Small Breeds Farm and Animal Rescue Centre

Reviewed By Adventure797467

Spent a lovely few hours at heronfield this morning, we had a lovely welcome from Mitch who was most informative about which paths to take and about the animals, Mitch and his wife give their whole life to these animals and do amazing with them all with I would imagine very little funds and rely on us to visit and support them, I love that all the animals have shelters, it must be such hard work for them both looking after all the animals and you can tell he is improving all their homes, when we had been round we had a look round the little shop and bought a toy and some stickers, I could have spent hours in there it's like an Aladdin's cave, everything is what people have donated and all goes to feeding the animals and vets fees, please call in and help their funds or even volunteer to help them it is such a worthy cause Thank you for a lovely morning will visit again soon in the summer holidays June and John Walton and little Reubs x
