Chester Zoo Brilliant! - Save 5% by booking online

Chester Zoo has been transformed in recent years, many more improvements over the winter too. Several new exhibits including wild dogs and much better meerkats enclosure. Baby elephant too!

This trip we booked online which saved queues on arrival, just scanned the print out and go. Yes, print out! Whilst there is no mention on the web site, you do need a printer in order to pre book online. This caused a bit of stress as we don't have one. Apart from that, a great service and one of the best days out in Cheshire.

Honesty cafe at Prestbury Nursery - Cheshire

These days you usually need a bank loan to visit a garden centre cafe. I was pleasantly surprised to discover a novel approach at a local nursery just north of Macclesfield.

Unmanned, you make the brews, you set the prices, leave the dishes. Help yourself to milk in the fridge. Unpretentious and a welcome break when you have a toddler in tow. Brilliant idea.
