Days Out In The North East

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

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

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

A really great treat to visit Yorkshire Heart and sample their wines, made even better as we were able to stay on their camp site and avoid any problems with driving.

I had not been to the cinema for like 3-4 years and normally I would not treat myself to go. But I got this for a Christmas present and went to go an watch the new James Bond film it was very cool with my girlfriend. The process of getting the code to then book the tickets was very simple and self explanatory. So I would recommend this as a present to anyone particularly someone who does not go to the cinema very often.

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

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!

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!

Quiet day in half term, great day had.

We had such a great time with Maggie and her lovely llama's. So much fun and really interesting learning about the animals and their characters. Maggie was so helpful and friendly we had such a lovely time and would highly recommend
