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!

National Trust Cliveden

Set high above the Thames with far-reaching views, Cliveden’s impressive gardens and majestic woodlands capture the grandeur of a bygone era. There's lots going on around the estate whether it's for a gentle stroll through the formal gardens or a race through the woods with the children, dogs and adults - Cliveden has something for everyone, and everyone's welcome!

Such beautiful gardens need a visit. Families and dogs are welcome which is lovely to see. The water gardens and pools reminded us of Monets paintings. There is a playground for children, lovely sculptures about the gardens, lots of different specimens of trees and flowers including a rose garden planted with David Austin roses. The smell was delightful!

Tiggywinkles Wildlife Hospital Visitor's Centre

Reviewed By JNewman93 - Derby, United Kingdom

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.

The Horse Trust

The Horse Trust, Home of Rest for Horses is set in 200 acres of beautiful Chiltern countryside between High Wycombe and Aylesbury, just outside Princes Risborough. Our Home of Rest for Horses is at the heart of our charity. It is here that we care for over 100 retired and rescued horses, ponies and donkeys. Visit us to see our retired working horses - from the Police and Military who have spent a lifetime serving our country or communities, to the ponies who have helped improve the lives of disabled or disadvantaged children. Meet the rescued horses, ponies and donkeys who have found sanctuary with us after suffering from cruelty or neglect. Visit our museum to find out how we helped War Horses in World War 1, take a walk around the farm to see the horses grazing in their fields or visit our Black Beauty Tea Room and gift shop to enjoy a cream tea. We look forward to meeting you!

Visited The Horse Trust with my daughter on their ‘Horses, Hounds and Heroes’ open day. Lots to see and do if you like horses and animals. The horses looked lovely, the stables are immaculate and the cafe served a lovely cup of tea. Well worth supporting this lovely charity.
