A unique experience ...... we've never been anywhere quite like it. Hard to describe, you just HAVE to go. A great day out for all ages ....... be prepared to get wet even if it doesn't rain !!

Visited on a day with strong winds and some rain. Soon forgot about the weather by getting engrossed in all that is to enjoy here. Great place. It brought out the child in everyone of us including the grandparents! There is so much to do here it would take me ages to explain it all. So interesting and mysterious. The... More

Genuinely a brilliant day out. I was skeptical as I'd previously been around 8 years ago, and thought Id maybe not enjoy it as much. I was wrong, thoroughly enjoyed it, good for all of the family. The food in the café although it is quite pricey got some items was lovely. Definitely recommend if you're in the area as... More

although the maangement of the entry coud have been handled better and the service in the cafe was a little amateurish, the attraction itself was great fun, and the three hours we spent exploring the network of tunnels and mazes and follies was thoroughly enjoyable. Aimed at kids, we visited as a group of adults and it was no less... More

Forbidden Corner totally exceeds expectations, when you look on the internet you expect something rather boring, like just looking at statues and other art work but you get dragged into the treasure hunt side and there is no stopping you. it might be an idea to take a spare set of clothes.

We had a fantastic time. It is well worth a visit. Not a place for really young children as they were scared of the dark tunnels and getting wet.

My boyfriend and I visited The Forbidden Corner on a sunny bank holiday Monday, so it was rather busy, as we expected! We weren't too sure what to expect, but had heard good things so we thought we would give it a try. There were a lot of narrow passages, so with it being busy, some were a even more... More

Not sure if I would travel more than an hour to get there given the length of time spent there but we were staying in the area for a couple of days so it was definitely worth the visit. A fascinating muddle of paths, tunnels and surprises await you in these lovely gardens. Great for adults and kids and would... More

We have been meaning to go to the forbidden corner for a few years now and never got around to it. This unique attraction provides great entertainment for kids and adults too. There is plenty of interesting (and bizarre) things to see here and the water spraying out at every opportunity provides good laughs all round. Considering how wet you... More
