    Average queue times, weather was great and all my favourite rides were open. Workers were friendly and I love how many toilet blocks and water fountains available.

    We used the recorded devices with headphones but feel that a guided tour might of been more successful as we, along with other visitors we spoke too, did not find the signage adequate within the house and grounds. At one time, there were several of us crossings paths as we tried to find the Maze. The various areas within the palace were so interesting and the staff very helpful. We visited both shops which were stocked with some lovely item’s albeit, a little pricey. In one shop there was a very helpful and entertaining lady with an accent and in the other shop we had the help of Sue. Both ladies were very personable and helpful. All the staff on the whole complex were dressed smartly and friendly and helpful. We had lunch which was reasonably priced and sat outside in the sun being watched by hooded crows and jackdaws

    Booked two day weekend ticket, with 2nd day free entrance, with daughter & grandkids, ages 4/6/8.
    Read previous bad reviews about the following:
    Long ques & expensive fast passes, both true but it is a theme park, we used the park app to pick & choose rides/times to suit.
    On second day treated ourselves to 4 fast passes on big rides, well worth £ 10/12 each to wait 10 mins instead of 60-70, with a smug look 😄.
    Be aware of small children ride heights rule !.

    Log into free wi-fi when you arrive as poor mobile signals otherwise.

    Park food outlets and pop up vendors very expensive, poor choice and ques as reviewed previously, so we went prepared with packed lunches and drinks, with back up in our cars which we used to top up, as you can leave and re enter the park so, top marks for that Chessington.

    Rides generally okay, having been to Florida twice didn't t get too excited ! but still fun for value two day ticket.
    Zoofari okay, did see rhinos and giraffe close up. Rest of zoo a bit tired but, at least they are helping preserve great creatures in this sad world for animals.
    One more noticeable review we had read regarding lazy and disinterested young staff Yes, mostly young but they were working ! and, Most of the rides staff we had, were organised, helpfull and calling people/groups forward to fill empty ride seats, Especially our lad on the Sunday Zoofari who was excellent.
    Overall !! Enjoyable fun weekend just go prepared, and don't expect Orlando 🙄, this is the UK.
    Hope this helps.

    We came with friends and were delighted with the experience. We walked through various hangars following the ages of racing cars with comprehensive information on placards but with well informed volunteers adding further knowledge. There are racing bikes some with sidecars and vintage bicycles and penny farthings. The history of Sir Barnes Wallis and information about the supersonic wind tunnel and the bouncing bombs and the stratosphere chamber was fascinating. Aviation history is abundant and even to non-enthusiasts it is very engaging with lots to see. The bus museum is also good fun with the bus used in Downton Abbey gaining fame along with other from films etc. The modern racing car section is fantastic with a full size lego McLaren 720S amongst some fantastic exhibits. Of course you can't miss Concorde, it's huge!. We enjoyed a great afternoon.

    Wisley's Flower Festival was amazing! Superb colourful, top quality plants of all types, beautifully arranged and managed in many areas throughout the grounds.
    Marquees held wonderful displays created by gifted gardeners and talented artists.
    Generally so much to enjoy with large numbers of happy people.

    This is a fascinating place to go. There are so many different sculptures to see. They are different sizes and made of different materials. It does take awhile to walk around. It is so worthwhile. You get a map when you go in and you do need it. The sculptures are set in woodland which really helps to display them at there best and is a bit like hide and seek sometimes to find them.
    It is a photographers heaven.
    There are seats around the park so you can have a rest and also a picnic if you have brought one. There are toilets but no Cafe.
    You do need time to do it justice.
    We really enjoyed our visit'

    Heya.

    In order to try new things I came here on a day out. The views are simply amazing. I attended a free tour and talk about the history of the entire place as well. Get lunch at the cafe and explore the house in question too. Take a look at the nice bookshop and stroll around the gardens. Maybe also think about getting a membership. Five out of five stars and recommended. I literally had the best time ever.

    Lots to do indoors and out but would have been a lot less enjoyable. Had great fun with a 20 month old, a 4 year old and my niece.

    Always planned to visit but never seem to get here I wonder why as it was a great day out
    We took our 6 yr old granddaughter and she was transfixed by so many of the native creatures It was fun trying to spot the tiny mice and the fast moving weasel amongst other things
    We went to two talks and the girls showing animals were informative and very good We had late lunch at the cafe and they still had a choice of sandwiches
    I cannot fault the centre

    Amazing view at the top. The Stepping Stones walk was a little tricky but manageable....not ideal for limited fitness/difficulty mobilising etc...
    There are steps to the top of the hill and when you get to the top you can enjoy the views as well as tea and cakes at the NT cafe. Lovely place, would visit again!
