- Jack2757United Kingdom840 contributionsThere is a very big range of shops in the metro centre. From well know chains to small independent companies inside. They have recently added a big rock climbing and adventure area for children with staff teaching them skills. They have a cinema and bowling inside. They have a very large range of restaurants and fast food inside for something to eat. It is very easy to spend an afternoon hereWritten July 7, 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.
- Carole K56 contributionsWhat a beautifully maintained park. Such a splendid house and thoughfully tended grounds. The lake area too was pristine and we commend the council on keeping it so beautifully. We were surprised at how stunning it is. My Nan lived bear Low Fell and talked about a ,'big posh park' they visited so we came to find it. I'm hoping it's the right one. Nan was born 1901. It's just wonderful.Written July 17, 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.

- samantha C12 contributionsVery friendly staff. Some poignant exhibitions that reflect local history that connects with the global community providing opportunity for interesting conversations with our older children (zero tolerance campaign from the 90’s).
Interesting stairwell exhibition (heaven/hell) infinity stairs using mirrors, that our boys loved, as well as glass fronted lifts.Written January 4, 2025This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Samantha L2 contributionsThis was a fab little farm for the children to walk around and see all the different animals!
The park was great and the cafe too.
Would highly recommend visiting.Written August 26, 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

We were 8 people in total, and were lucky enough to be allowed to all go together. Everyone in the group had an amazing time, the falconer was very knowledgeable and friendly and we loved getting up close to the birds. Even my mam, who has a slight disability, was able to walk through the woods with the aid of her stick and my arm, so there are very few barriers for people to give it a go. We weren't rushed and were able to take lots of photos and videos.Written April 22, 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- LostInTimePittsburgh, PA24,618 contributionsThis is the low bridge on the river. As its name says it can rotate on the center island to let ships go by. It’s a pretty long bridge for this type of action.Written November 7, 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.
