Quex Park Concerts 2024

The Powell-Cotton museum and the family mansion next to it were definitely worth the visit! The museum has provision for young children with sensory needs and even provides an opportunity for a hands-on experience, named as "Handling collection". It hosts more than 200 animals and other items from the founder's expeditions in Asia and Africa. The house also hosts interesting exhibits, along with spectacular furniture and tapestries, amongst which an authentic Napoleon's drawing and his hair (!) Our guide, Margaret, was knowledgeable and very friendly, making the visit even more pleasant. We finished our visit at the mini-golf garden, but we'll definitely be back, as there's so much more to do and see. Great family day out, recommended!

We enjoyed The Bouncing Bunnies Easter trail. Had lunch in the main restaurant. A nice couple of hours. Quex always has events on, but it is still worth a visit for a cuppa/ walk.

A very nice mini golf, just over £20 for a game of 18 holes for two adults and a 4 year old. The holes are well kept, clean and interesting, some well advanced. Beautiful plants, ponds, flowers, interesting arrangements. Only 4 stars as there was a 50th birthday party group of over 10 people who kept playing during the afternoon and completely blocked the flow of the game. Had to queue with 2-3 teams for each hole, spent most of the time there, pretty much wasted for queuing and decided to ditch the place after 12th hole (already 45 mins playing!). This should not be allowed during busy weekends. So much stuff in the Quex park so leave it to the last...

Although local to me had never visited before and what a delight! You do need to take into account the way the animals arrived at Quex which seems abhorrent now but was what was commonplace at the time. The Dioramas are well designed and constructed to show the natural habitat and the massive quantity of other exhibits make for a good museum. At the end there is a large room where adults and children alike can see and touch exhibits and learn more. Included in the low ticket price of £3.50 (less for children and concessions) was a guided tour of the house, an added bonus. Our guide was Dayze and they were knowledgeable and approachable. Photos were allowed. I would highly recommend this place

Museum lovely and amazing. Staff lovely however felicities cafe . Although tables inside not booked till an hour after I was there the staff wouldn’t let me sit inside. Very disappointing as it was a rainy day and I would have had food had we been able to sit for 30 mins!
