Loved it! Went with my 4 and 2 year old. They relished jumping in muddy puddles for hours, and loved the wildlife. There is so much to enjoy, will be going back regularly. Gave it a 4 star as the baby facilities aren't ideal. There seems to be only one place to change babies, main building, 1st floor. I may be wrong but didn't see it in the other toilets, so had to change my baby on the floor at one point. But still loved it and would go back.

Surprisingly good place for birdwatching in the heart of London - not only for urban birders! Nearly every time something interesting, last Sunday for example - Jack snipes. Bittern shows regularly over winter. Check their sightings web page for the latest information and what to look for. Part of the site is a mini zoo, of interest for children, but 'wild side" is a real bird reserve and quite a good one, not just for London. Good place for lunch as well but not the cheapest.

The place is much bigger than I thought and we easily spent a few good hours walking about watching birds and otters (I recommend to plan your visit so that you get to see the otters being fed- twice a day). A very relaxing place with lots to see. Your entry fee also helps their conservation efforts which is a great cause.

Completely love this place. Hard to believe you are in the centre of London! You can watch otters being fed or sign up to follow one of the guides on their feeding tour and learn more about birds. So much to do and see for little people too. There is a children's playground, a dedicated pond dipping area with nets and an indoor exploration area for those little ones who like to push buttons and watch water going down to the sewer etc. Its very educational and there are often nature trails and Easter egg hunt type of activities. Super peaceful with proper bird watching hides dotted around for those serious bird watchers. We have seen dragon flies and all manner of lizards and birds in our time as members. There is even a night time bat walk which you can go along to. Great cafe with indoor and outdoor seating and also bring some money for the shop on the way out which is a great place to buy something different for a birthday or Xmas present. Membership is not expensive and well worth it, but you can just go for the day if you want to check it out!

Lovely site with friendly staff and much to see. One sad note though: On our first visit we had a fantastic extended tour led by a very knowledgeable volunteer which greatly enhanced the visit; the management have apparently stopped this practice in the last year or so. I don't know the reasons but it was a great option before and its lack takes away my potential fifth star!
