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

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.
