Wrest Park

Reviewed By Keenomanjaro - Croydon, United Kingdom

Just off the A6, Wrest Park is a great place to stop off for an afternoon to take in the house and extensive gardens. The house has a few basic rooms set up with museum-style exhibits, plus a few impressive, if unfurnished, state rooms which are well worth exploring. However, the main draw here has to be the gardens which are well laid out across a large area with ornamental ponds, colourful parterre, a hidden sculpture gallery in the old dairy building, a grand orangery, the old bowling green house, an attractive pavilion and a nice 'Chinese' bridge among the highlights. There's some nice woodland to the far end of the property that's worth spending time in, as various statues and clearings can be found and we spotted muntjac deer out there too. A nice property that would be ideal for a warm summer's day but worked just as well on a bracing, but dry, winter's afternoon.

Stockwood Discovery Centre

Reviewed By scl8uk - Luton, United Kingdom

An afternoon to entertain my 4 year old grandson while his Mum took a well earned rest and for a local place of interest you can't go far wrong! Free entry and lots to see and do from educational, interactive activities to climbing on an old tractor. A compact but felt expansive attraction with a value cafe and the obligatory gift shop to finish. Considering you're only a mile from central Luton you can have that country feeling. Thank you

Woodside Animal Farm and Leisure Park

Reviewed By fish4travel - London, United Kingdom

When you are only 2 I am sure everything is an adventure, and to visit Woodside with a 2 year old is also an adventure - it was a dry, fine day when we visited for the first time in many many years. There was a good range of animals and the opportunity for feeding them, lots of places to wash little fingers (and large ones too) and things to buy. There was a great indoor play area which was extremely popular with children of all ages and I am sure is really welcome when the weather is not so good. It was excellent value for money for the entry fee. There is an internal cafe and another stand alone one on site, with some other outlets and a dog grooming centre, and a DIY dog wash - all in all a great family day which we will remember with photos aplenty!

The Barton Hills National Nature Reserve

Reviewed By I6290MIdavidb - Barton-le-Clay, United Kingdom

This beautiful reserve is an amazing place, in an area of outstanding natural beauty. We are so very lucky to live in walking distance. Recently the entire local area has been inundated with visitors, many are considerate and leave the place as clean as they found it. Unfortunately there are a great number who park where ever they like, on people's drives, gardens, blocking roads, so inconsiderate. Then we have the cyclists who believe that the "no cycles" rule in the reserve does not apply to them - such a great shame as they are damaging the footpaths and rare plants. Then there are those that believe that there are litter fairies that come round each night to clear up after them - these people are destroying the very area they came to see. There is NO car parking. There is one small refuse bin, so be prepared to take your litter home. Cycles are not permitted, so don't cycle there. Enjoy the beautiful scenery and nature, amazing flying displays of the red kites and buzzards. Please treat it with respect and enjoy it, it is an amazing place, let's keep it that way.
