Our toddler loves running over the bridges and the owners Christine and Tony are lovely. The driving range is in great condition and they have set up marquees and tables so it’s a perfect place to eat lunch (pack your own). Plenty of parking too!

Facade Escape Room

What's an escape room? It's a fun, new entertainment concept where teams of players enter a themed room and cooperate to solve puzzles, clues and riddles in a challenging story adventure. Our three rooms include 'The Detective's Office', a murder mystery where you are framed as the killer; Category 5, where you must find your keys to escape from an oncoming storm; and 'Sabotage' where you are sent behind enemy lines to save the world from a missile - In 60 minutes!

Reviewed By 395yasminn

My daughter and I had our first escape room experience in the Category 5 room and absolutely loved it. Each of the games really had us thinking to solve them and find the answers that we needed to progress through and finally to escape. Definitely would recommend this activity for virtually anyone. We will be returning for another adventure in the very near future!

Billabong Zoo: Koala & Wildlife Park

Reviewed By 213laurencey - Hemel Hempstead, United Kingdom

Today we visited Billabong zoo greeted by lovely ticket staff with big smiles and a lovely welcome. It has been one of the highlights of our holiday. The zoo keepers are not only amazing but very informative and show care and expertise in how they treat the animals. Always with the greatest respect I might add. Special thanks to Simonne no one knows more about Koalas than this young woman. Also she did several other animal talks given us a real insight to the work they do at the zoo and the importance of conservation. Thanks also to Brooke and her assistant we had a very informative chat about big cats she is an amazing young woman what an achievement working with these wonderful complex animals at such a young age. Also to Ashley excellent talk over the noise of traffic which wasn't easy about the stunning red pandas who obviously adore her. Shrek was fantastic and our jaws dropped at the skill of the presentation by both Keepers. Cafe offered lots of delights but we ended up with only having drinks and ice cream as the weather was too hot to eat a hot meal! Hope to visit again soon!
