Butterfly Farm (Stratford-upon-Avon) Reviews
Newest Review: ... it is. However it's a greenhouse with plants, a bit of water and humidity to recreate that 'Rain forest' effect. From the minute you step through the plastic flaps your greeted instantly by butterfly's of all sizes who don't seem to mind where they land which is actually quite nice to see them just doing there own thing. Unfortunately there did seem to be quite a few on the ground that looked like they'd been trodden on and we'd not been told to look out for them on the floor so I imagine the farm must lose a lot of butterfly's this way. The main part of the farm is filled with plants and shrubbery to mimic the rain forest and a stream r... more

A friend and I took my daughter to the butterfly farm in early July this year. After looking at the website, which states this to be 'The Uk's largest tropical butterfly paradise,' I thought it would be a fair sized place with a good amount to see and do.

Stratford on Avon's Butterfly farm is a popular attraction in our area with families, it's based in Stratford upon Avon and is only a few minutes walk from the town centre, and is very well sign posted, even having its own bus, which runs around the area.

There are also many children in our area whom visit the Butterfly Farm on school trips especially at primary school and nursery ages, and they always seem to enjoy it, no matter what age or sex. I have been there a few times with family and friends and every time we have had a really lovely day, it really is a really ... Read the complete review
