Beautiful butterflies. Staff were extremely friendly & helpful. The maze was good but managed to complete it in under five minutes. The crazy golf was hilarious

This was my third visit which perhaps says something......I think this is very good value when booking online, for around £5 you get the butterfly zoo, the maze and mini golf which kept three children very well entertained. Lovely grounds, everything clean and well maintained and very courteous helpful staff. We had a picnic in the grounds and some delicious... More

The butterfly zoo was ok, but I have been to better. Maybe there weren't many butterflies when we went.

Worth going to if you combine the Butterfly Zoo, the Maze and the mini golf - all 3 will keep you occupied for about 2 hours. There's also a lazer quest there, but didn't do that! You can buy a multi ticket for the maze and butterfly zoo and in doing so we were given a free go on the... More

We came across this little attraction near Symonds Yat, expecting to spend an hour or two, and then move on somewhere else. In the end, we spent most of the afternoon here, interspersed with a nice pub lunch at the hotel across the road. There's a nice maze, which isn't too hard to solve, but the great thing was that...

Came across the Butterfly world and its maze and other attractions while visiting this area. Four of us spent a few nice hours here, the inside of the butterfly house was so hot...lasted about 20 mins then had to leave. Was really nice in there and a few landed on us. The maze was fun as well and didn't try... More

This is a small attraction, but well worth a visit. Fascinating walking amongst the butterflies and being able to get a close look at them as they settle on the plants and trees. You have to watch where you are walking sometimes as they occasionally find the path around the zoo a good place to land! There are a quite... More
