Father’s day railway weekend!! The weather was nice and the rain didn’t came. The staff was very friendly and shared their life stories on the steam train. They provided free ticket for the kid, it was great. Highly recommend kid who loves train ride.

πŸ† Family Action Verdict

A genuinely excellent value family outing for train-loving children of all ages. The passionate volunteer operators add authenticity that commercial venues rarely match. The well-kept gardens with picnic areas make it a relaxed afternoon rather than a quick attraction. Sunday-only operation means forward planning is essential.
