    Highly recommend Visited twice whilst we were in the area the kids loved it. The deer are very friendly and come right up to the gaps in the fence or the windows in the hide, especially if you bring some carrots. Ample parking and Free! Busy at times but not for long.

    Nice area to view the red deers. Plenty of opening to feed the deers if you've brought some carrots. Great for the kids. Plenty of parking and a small pathway to take your pouch to stretch they're legs.

    Stunning little area to stop by for 10 minutes, plus you can also feed the red deer, just remember to bring some carrots or apples. Deer are very friendly, but also a bit nibbley, guess they're used to everyone coming and going with food so assume everything is food.

    Lovely place to see Red deer, there’s a type of hide there where you can go in and view; or stay outside and they shove their noses through. You can feed them fruit and veg, but crisps and other stuff are a no-no. We didn’t manage to see the stags unfortunately

    Fantastic for the kids, the deer are very friendly, and we took apples and carrots to feed them. Loads to see if it's raining there's a hut with chairs and tables for picnics as well 😊

    If your driving past, the weather is good and you a one or more children in the car then you certainly need to stop here! It will not take ages but the will enjoy to see the deer 🦌. There is a small hut with chairs where you are a bit protected against the elements, but with the windows open to be able to touch the deer, the wind will be chilly even in the hut.
