February 2024Great place to walk around with the centre spread over three different levels. Lots of interesting hands on demonstration objects to try which will keep children and adults of all ages engaged. If visiting during a weekday and schools are starting to go in go directly to the top floor where it will be quieter and work your way down.

March 2024The best experience. We visited here as part of my son's 21st birthday events. 4 "adults". Could've happily spent another 6 hours here! Great fun and very informative

February 2024There’s so much for kids (and adults!) to enjoy here. Our visit including an IMAX documentary lasted about 5 hours. Lots of interactive things to do and would recommend the animal film.

March 2024Went today to the science centre with the wife and kiddies. Never been before and have to say we where there for hours! Loads to do. Science show, planetarium, short movies in the IMAX, just packed with fun, entertaining and brain expanding stuff. Have to tip my cap to the science show hosts Richard and Emma too today. Really funny but informative just what you want. Enjoyed it a lot. Only ouch part was the cafe. Felt it was a bit over priced and did dampin the experience for us as we hadn't prepared any lunches before hand. Apart from that though top teir fun for all and do recommend paying for all tickets and extras before hand to save time on the day. Go expand your minds and enjoy as we did 👍😎🏴

January 2024Some interesting things to learn and lots of activities to do. Unfortunately there was alot of schools there the day we went with really noisy unruly children which the teachers weren't controlling,they was running about screaming and we had to have a break in the coffee shop to bear going back in. So more supervisors needed as the teachers didn't care. It was alot better once they left at 2/2:30pm. We booked onto the Planetarium tour but didn't go in as when we was waiting there was an obviously very ill child coughing non stop and we didn't want to get ill for the rest of our holiday especially as she was not putting her hand over her mouth and coughing over everything. Definitely take hand sanitisation with you. Staff friendly and helpful. Cafe good. Children enjoyed most of it.
