Trentham Estate (Gardens)

As i mentioned before for our anniversary we went on a day out to Trentham Gardens. This place in my eyes  is one of the best places in Stoke on Trent - second only to my mum and dads home of course! It's a place that means a lot to me because me and H had one of our first dates.


Trentham gardens is a wonderful place for all the family to visit. The Italian Gardens are amongst the first things you see at Trentham as you walk into the entrance over the big bridge. 






There is so much to do to keep your little ones busy include the mile long lake and acres of woodland to explore and a huge play area to keep them busy, which is set on bark chippings within the gardens, within this area there is  a 'Hide and Speak' Maze which has kept my niece and nephew busy for many an hour. There are also huge sandpits to keep the toddles entertained. There is a cafe situated near to the park which has a large glass windows and a patio area which offer wonderful views over the lake.





This place has amazing children's facilities loads of places to eat and drink both inside and outside the gardens. Loads of changing areas and the disabled facilities are amazing but the walk around the lake is not always accessible by wheelchairs / buggys due the surface been very uneven and it gets worse if its been raining - in my eyes this could be improved with a little bit of investment. But If you get to tired at the half way point there is a cafe and a  'Miss Elizabeth' passenger boat trip back to the other end of lake.
The prices are listed below and for all that you get i think its not too bad but if you are close enough by you can get an annual pass which means you can go as many times as you like and you also get discounts of special events such as summer nights and bonfire night (we went last year, it was amazing)
Hear is a link to the Trentham admission prices is HERE. 


A family pass also makes it a little cheaper.
