Days Out And Attractions in Shrewsbury
An educational yet entertaining day out in Shropshire. From GPS treasure trails to simulated balloon rides and a life size replica of a woolly mammoth, it can only be the Shropshire Hills Discovery Centre! Perfect for the whole family or school trips.
Good quality and choice of food in the cafe but surprisingly not dog friendly which is a real disappointment as they could very easily accommodate given hard floors and multiple entrances to the cafe. No outside shelter so would only visit again on a dry day. Couple of destination EV chargers which is a bonus.

Acton Scott Historic Working Farm is a fantastic day out in rural Shropshire. Jam-packed packed with live demonstrations that reflect the real workings of a Victorian farm, Acton Scott is perfect for kids or the kid in you! It is also available as a film location, and was famously featured in BBC2's ratings success 'Victorian Farm'.
We had a beautiful afternoon attending the Harvest Festival at Acton Scott. The atmosphere was so friendly, the animals clearly well kept and the volunteers so welcoming to all. The harvest service and meal were a lovely way to bring us all together and Edward the Shire Horse did a grand job.
After a short closure the venue is now open during 2024 for special events only, with plans to re-open more fully next spring.
The volunteers have clearly worked hard to put the place in good order during the closure and have made the whole farm feel so welcoming. I look forward to coming back again in 2025.
