The Milky Way

Great day out. Good value for money. Plenty for the kids to do. The whole family can get involved. Really enjoyed it.

We have visited many times over the years and my girls (10 and 6) still love it every time. Staff are so friendly, during our visit this time we came across a very understanding train driver who tried hard to put my autistic daughter at ease, the guys on the dodgems couldn't have been nicer and the lady in the pottery painting who cleaned up the "glitter" mess my two had made was also lovely and understanding. We live in Kent and my parents in Devon, I don't doubt we will visit again during a visit to Nanny & Grandad 😍

We took my Granddaughter to a Halloween event. I took their Mum regularly - thirty + years previously! And her brothers enjoyed wonderful Birthday parties there! It was a fabulous day and so well laid out with many attractions for all ages. The birds of prey were beautiful and professionally displayed. I loved that animals are not exploited in a money making way. All very genuine and tasteful

Thank you and we will be back

Fantastic, despite truly awful weather! Torrential rain most of the day, with blustery wind, so some of the outside rides were forced to close for safety reasons. A couple of them did open briefly and were enjoyed by the teens in my family group. The birds of prey centre and the beautiful art of David who runs it, were still accessable, and he managed a small, very informative and interesting, indoor display with some of his birds,however the outdoor display with the larger birds could not go ahead. Brilliant! and a lovely chap to have met. We visited in late September for a family birthday and there was still plenty to do all day, despite the weather outside. The restaurant staff went out of their way to provide menus for us that included food that my grandson, who has various severe allergies ,was able to eat and later, despite notices saying only food bought there could be consumed there, they very kindly allowed us to bring our own vegan and allergy free birthday cake in for the birthday boy. So very kind and very much appreciated. Our mixed age,( ranging from 9months to 76), family party of nine had an absolutely fantastic time and Great Grandmother 76,gave everyone watching, plenty of laughs by going down the highest Black Hole drop slide!

We come to the milky way every year and have always had an amazing time. The rides are fun and the soft play and pottery shed is always a good time. However the highlight of the day are the birds of prey. The bird show is amazing and even though it's normal very similar each year, always worth watching. How are work is beautiful and is my mother in-law favourite artist, so we always have a look at how art and the fact you can meet the birds that they are basted on makes it more special. I don't recommend the cafe, it's basic food and the setting in both cafes are uncomfortable and tbh very expensive however there are plenty of seating to eat an packlunch. It's a welcome to all children of all like and dislikes and all ages. Get there by 11 am and watch the magic show its funny and interesting.

Fun day out for whole family - went with a 5, 7, 2x 13 year olds and the assorted parents and grandparents.

Loads for the younger ones to do, enough to keep the older ones interested as well.

Highlight for myself and the teenagers was the Falconry display. Absolutely amazing stuff with the birds, great talk and one of my boys purchased an art print from David who runs them.

Also great display of Star Wars and Dr Who memorabilia.

Fantastic day out.

We went there for the bird show but we did just about every thing else in spite of not having young children.

The ticket staff were welcoming and informative. They could not have been more helpful.

David the falconer was superb at everything and we had a good chat in his shop and bought some of his amazing artwork. Son took loads of photos.

Merlin was very entertaining indeed. Don't want to give anything away but he was hilarious.

The cafe had some seriously cheesy jacket spuds. We had to have a milky way as well.

The ride staff were polite and fun, and mentioned other things to do.

Signposting was good.

Thanks for a great day out.
