It's a beautifully maintained park with lots going on for kids and adults. The sensory garden is stunning in the summer, the aviary is interesting and the mini railway is absolutely cute AF! Note that it's free with a donation. There is soft play, a cafe that caters to children, large playground aimed at older kids and lots of interesting sculptures and plants. I love the artistic use of the tree stumps! Plenty of picnic space and while you can bring your dog, I'd only bring a fairly bomb-proof pooch. Lots of kids and noise in the holidays. The toilets I saw in the museum are well appointed.

Now, why could I have knocked off a star? The (quieter) museum cafe was nice enough but the range of drinks available was limited to a few expensive options like Fentimans rose lemonade etc. Also, I read that there was a small mammal enclosure but we couldn't find it- so signage could be a lot better.

We came here to meet friends half way for a catch up (they're Greater Manchester and we're Warwickshire). I had great hopes of Brampton based on its website, but reality didn't quite meet expectations.

Parking is free and food and drink are cheap, which was a definite positive. However, the owners of the cafe were not happy with children using the toilet unless they were in soft play ( £3.75 per child) and we had to remind them we had bought food and drink and were paying customers on multiple occasions.

It is very much a locals park and fits that bill perfectly. Just don't travel any distance to get the Brampton...
