Located
on a former coal mine, this place is great for kids covering many
subjects in a really engaging way. Nearly all the exhibits are in
English and give children a real hands on approach to science and how
things work.
We have had season passes for this place for the last two years and have enjoyed our visits! It's a great place when your stuck for something to do and the weather isn't so good.
There is a big, good playground next to the cafe.
Some areas and attractions are currently closed due to Covid restrictions.

Top tips
Use the lockers at the start to save lugging your coats all the way round.
Take some water and snacks as nothing is available at the moment.
When fully open, don't forget to get bands to do the high ropes course for children over 6 years old. Ask about it when you arrive.
