Exploring……Living Rainforest, Berkshire

A handy midway point between Bristol and London, the Living Rainforest is conveniently located just off the M4 Newbury junction. I'd seen the signpost many a time but never been to investigate until now....


A tropical rainforest in large glasshouses it's full of beautiful tropical plants with butterflies fluttering, birds roaming and a sloth (too elusive for us to spot!). 











Plus monkeys, toucans, a crocodile, fish, turtles and creepy crawlies!

Watch out for this guy running around  -as big as a peacock!

The ticket is a bit pricey, but does allow you free entry for a year so great if you are local and lots to entertain kids. 

Recommend going for lunch at the White Hart, at Hampstead Norreys on the way!



Happy Easter

Happy Easter everyone. I hope it's full of chocolate and spring time fun :-)
