Days Out In The North East

Great saving for a family that loves bowling and having fun together.

A fab informative enjoyable experience

Absolutely delicious in beautiful surroundings. What’s not to love!

We had a fantastic day at Shawsgate Vineyard. The tour was extremely informative and the guide was knowledgeable and entertaining. The lunch consisted of cheese, ham, salad and bread with a delicious cheesecake for dessert. There was no choice, but the food was good. The wine tasting involved quite a lot of wine, and we were able to choose a glass of our favourite for lunch - something to consider if you are driving! I would highly recommend this!

My 13-year-old and I had an amazing time on the meerkat experience. We went into three different enclosures where the meerkats climbed on us, sat on us and we got to feed them. We were really lucky as in the last enclosure there were three babies (6 wks) who also climbed on us and wanted lots of snuggles. Our guide was Charlotte who was fab and very knowledgeable. The actual zoo is great too with lots of different animals to see and some to handfeed as well. Definitely recommend this experience gift, and Hoo Zoo

Really nice explanation of wine making, with history of how it came about in Yorkshire. The tasting was excellent and informative, a pleasant experience all round.

We went as a family of 5, A 5 year old, 4 year old and 3 week old. We had a great time and it was perfect for our 5 and 4 year old to do activities independently and as a family We can’t wait to go again!

Really good experience. The keeper was very knowledgeable and kept the experience fun and factual to suit the behavior of the Meerkats. Good little zoo to look round with a good variety of smaller animals both wild and domesticated. The little tea shack was good . Watch ouit for the hungry Peacock !!!!!

The owner gave us a wonderfully informative and interesting talk about his winemaking journey, followed by a wine tasting with nibbles and then we went for a beautifully fresh and indulgent afternoon tea. I would definitely do this again and it makes a wonderful present for someone

Quiet day in half term, great day had.
