“The butterfly house was very interesting although the other attractions were run down and basic. We were only there for about an hour. The Cafe seemed to have nice food/drinks available although we didnt use it. Once you've seen it, you probably wont need to return. The staff were lovely and knowledgeable. It was a nice experience but a short one. The maze was interesting but needs some maintenance”

“I visited today and had the most amazing time. Such a great place for kids but there is something here for everyone. If you stopped and searched the leaves, there were butterflies everywhere, blending in with their surroundings. So many other things to look at and take in. The staff were so friendly and funny. Wonderful experience. Quirky and fun. Everyone should stop by the butterfly house when passing. ❤️🦋🦕🦖🪄🧚”
