- Peter Blythe7 contributionsWe enjoyed this so much last time that we booked to so it again.
The birds did not dissapoint, along with the legend that is Adam. The location is wonderful as are the birds. Adam's enthusiasm and knowledge really makes the day though - You will be amazed how much You learn.
Do it. Be inspired by the wonderful creatures and give your brain and senses a good reset at the same time

The interactive exhibits had us all laughing with joy. We were a group of 4 adults and had a lot of fun so this isn't only good for kids. All telescopes were open on our night and a cloudy start changed to a lovely clear night where we saw Jupiter, Saturn and the moon through the telescopes. We ended up spending around 4 hours on site which flew by.
The accessibility is slightly limited if you have mobility issues, the site is Grade 2 listed so they do the best that they can. I emailed before our booking and received a throrough run down of the site and what I would be able to access on the day. This really helped as I saw some amazing things and wasn't disapointed when there were bits that I couldn't. I would fully recommend emailing and getting this information.
Overall we had a fantastic night running around the site like excited kids and we will be coming back to show more people before it is closed.Written 18 November 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

There's a lot more going on inside than you would have any idea of from looking at the outside. The story of the restoration is fascinating in itself. It's pretty amazing this mill is still standing at all. The volunteers were very friendly and knowledgeable. The stairs go up the outside, so you do need to be pretty mobile and ok with heights, but the view from the top is fantastic. Great way to spend a Sunday afternoon.Written 12 September 2022This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.
- annafromlondonLondon, UK254 contributionsMy daughters booked this visit as a birthday treat for me- a lovely surprise!
The vineyard is in a beautiful setting , with stunning views of the local countryside.
The tour was so interesting and informative; learned a lot about wine production!
We enjoyed the tasting and chose the very palatable rose to accompany our cheese platter.
I was particularly impressed by the fact that everything is locally sourced where possible.
The staff are very welcoming and knowledgeable.
We were blessed with sunny weather too which made the experience even more enjoyable.Written 15 April 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

What I like in general in England is the uncomplicated way to play golf in UK compared to Germany!Written 12 August 2015This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- DKB_1906Horsham, UK2 contributionsTook my son to Brick Farm Lakes after a work colleague recommended it. A beautiful location, well run and maintained. We fished all the lakes and saw some massive fish in the Stag Lake. My son caught a nice 2lb rainbow and I just missed out on a larger fish. Fly used was Long shank nymph Hare's ear with Twinkle size 12.
Easy to understand why Brick Farm is in top 40 Stillwater League.Written 6 September 2018This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.
