The number 1 activity from my children's perspective, during our visit to Torbay. They loved the trails, they especially loved the waterfalls and the mini zoo is an extra (although I personally felt the macaw needed a friend, it looks very lonely). Dog loved it too, will definitely go back. I know I went as a child, so it's great to have a beautiful spot for generations to keep enjoying.

Absolute little gem this one. They have 3 routes to walk around. Blue which is rather easy and for the kids. Then red and purple which show you the water falls. You need good grippy shoes on. We did all routes. And the people route is the hardest but you get some awesome views. Be prepared to have to scramble up some rocky surfaces so you need a bit of fitness for this. You are at times climbing up steep rocky areas but it is so much fun. Red Route a little easier but still some climbs to do. Then you have a great cafe and also animals to look around. Really really fun.

An absolute beauty! I can strongly recommend it! We walked the basic route first,but our 12yr old daughter and myself were itching to climb some rocks and the waterfall, so took part of the red route too. Was so worth it. I do recommend outdoor trainers though! (I didn't have one as was last minute idea). Nice animals (meercats, macaw, goats, bunnies, chickens, skunk, owl) to see too and kids can feed them (need to purchase voucher). Food, ice cream, drinks in the caffee. The weather was a mix, but plenty of shades too on a sunny day if required. The woodland and the rocks are so tranquil and gives so much joy to young ones and older ones. If you are a bit more fragile, there is a route for that too. It's a must place to visit. 🤗

We visited during the half term school holidays. We arrived at around 11:30am and was on site for around 3 1/2 hours. On arrival you can pay at the gate or can pre book online. Children under 4 go free. There is a short walk to the main entrance where you are welcomed by a picknick area which has a small cafe and girt shop. There is a selection of ice-cream, ice lollies, drinks, chips. There is small selection of animals you can feed such as goats and meerkat. Please be aware that you need to book and pay extra for the meet the keeper meerkat feeding experience. There is also a small building that has snake's, stick insects, cockroaches and a tarantula. There are 3 different trials to walk. The blue one is quick and easy to navigate through the woodlands. However, the red and purple trails are quite steep with different types of terrain. This is not suitable for any type of pushchair or wheelchairs. The ground can be wet and muddy, so decent footwear is advised. If you want to walk all three trails, you will need between 2-3 hours depending on your speed and skill. You can borrow a baby carrier if you require which is free of charge. The cafe and bench area did become quite busy at around 1pm. Overall, the visit was quite nice with very nice views of the water fall and stream that runs down.

My wife visited here in her childhood and we came around 1999. Was lovely to visit again. Everyone was so friendly especially the lovely lady in the cafe who couldn’t do enough for us. We challenged ourselves to the purple trail and whilst steep in places we managed fine even with my wife’s bad knee. We just took our time. The views and scenery are beautiful. Makes you feel very tranquil. We could have sat on the boulders watching the water for hours. Well worth visit and worth every penny. Had a cup of tea and refreshing they had decaf and dairy free milk as well. Lots of choice.
