    I was in Shropshire for the weekend visiting friends and they suggested going to Park Hall which was a great experience! I already followed Park Hall on social media and I enjoy watching the videos of farmer Richard. I felt a bit star struck when we met him! He is very friendly, very knowledgeable and full of interesting facts. As a vet, I was very pleased with how well looked after the animals are. They live under excellent conditions and look very happy overall. But not everything is farm animals, in Park Hall I also learnt about British history. I particularly liked the WWI trenches.

    Fantastic day out for all three kids. 8 year old and two 4 year olds loved everything about this place. So many things to do outside and inside. Food hall and play area were clean and tidy. Petting areas have sinks to wash your hands. Recommend this is a day out for all the family.

    Pretty decent place with enough to see and do. The war area was particular good with plenty of information about. Kids loved the petting area and seeing the pony. The maize maze was also very good, kids wanted to do it 3 times!

    The owners have really put a lot of work into making this place enjoyable, and though not the cheapest place, it is value for money. The show was excellent, and the actors really put 100% into making it fun. The pig race is short but fun. There are multiple play areas and soft play as well as sand. There is a WW1 trench tour and a Welsh Guard museum. Extra is a £1 a go mini diggers and cars, worth it as even I had a go! Food is nice a really great place to visit

    We recently purchased 2 memberships so we could visit regularly with our little boy who is one. There are lots of wonderful facilities for children 3+ with clearly a lot of thought and money spent for this age group on play equipment and activities both indoors and out. However, for under this age group there are minimal play areas or sensory equipment and the ones that are there are unfortunately tatty, torn, run down and unclean. Its evidently one of the more neglected areas throughout. We were excited about being able to bring our little boy here on a regular basis (hence buying membership) However the soft play and any outdoor play spaces for this age bracket is somewhat poor and is the one thing that let this whole place down. Looking at the website we also thought that there may be more animals to see at an accessible level. This place is absolutely brilliant for children 4+ but may be a struggle at times with young toddler's.
