... As we didn't want to travel too far, our options were pretty limited and a quick search on Google gave us Lakemore's details so we went for it!
*** WHERE IS IT? ***

*** OVERALL VERDICT ***
When we first looked at going to the park, all the advertisements we saw stated that there were Wallabies on site. To cut a long story short, there weren’t and haven’t been for over four years. However, the fun we had showing the animals to Jake and being able to feed and touch some of them was more than worth the ... ...anyone wanting to spend a few hours in a nice setting, but not wishing to spend a fortune. We were there for about three hours and enjoyed it immensely. Jake’s knowledge of animals has improved and he is now able to point all the farm animals out to me in his books so I guess it was educational as well as fun.
Thanks for reading, Sarah xx ...

Advantages: Won't break the bank, lots to do for everyone, great fun Disadvantages: none
...4 and Leon 2), to Lakemore Country park in Crewe, following Ben's school trip there. He talked about it none stop, so we thought we'd give it a try. There is a huge wooden adventure park as soon as you enter, and the kids played on this for a good hour while we sat on the picnic benches provided and enjoyed a coffee - very relaxing! We then explored the grounds and the various animals on site having purchased animal feed. Leon was reluctant to pet ... ...the day progressed. Then children then spent an hour or two in the huge play barn, which is very well equipped with bouncy castles, wendy houses, slides, pedal tractors and other toys. We also lunched on our own packed lunches here, though the food on sale was very reasonable priced. We then played crazy golf (at no additional cost), and finished our visit with another trip to see the animals and say goodbye. This attraction is everything you could ...

Advantages: very peaceful Disadvantages: needs more visitors to keep it going
A perfect place to spend the day playing in peaceful surroundings. My sixteen month old boy loved it and was able to be at one with the animals.
Llamas, goats, sheep, pigs, chickens, ducks, peacocks and donkeys and beautiful birds. Rare and special breeds and all were friendly and happy and content. So too seemed the staff and lunch was prepared beautifully. We dined outside overlooking a beautiful lake and felt that we had discovered one of Cheshires ... ...After lunch we explored the barn play area. Wendy house with cooker and fridge, huge sandpit, fire-engine, slides, etc. etc. What joy for a toddler and a mother. We then took a turn around the lake, more pigs and chickens and then somebody was worn out and needed carrying home!
Please go, but only let your special friends know. ...
