Knowsley safari park
Going to Knowsley safari park tomorrow for the first time with kids aged 2 & 3. A bit worried as it's forecast rain for the day...just wondered if anyone can advise if there's any indoor space to eat a picnic and if it's a good place for young kids? Thanks.

Damage charge to a UK holiday home caused by a young child - help!
Hi, we stayed in a UK holiday cottage last week for a family Easter break. My young son made some marks on the wood cladding of the building using a stick.
