Things to do near Marwell Zoo

Annieuk75

We are staying at the Marwell Hotel (Next door to Marwell Zoo) and I am looking for cheap fun days out. I have 2 children aged 4 years and 17 months. I have looked at the zoo and it is quite expensive. The weather doesn't look great when we are there so something indoors would be good. Is there any softplay in that area?

Thanks

there is a Marwell soft play two mins by car. Marwell is quite isolated though really.

oh. if you get a nice day Marwell Zoo is lovely. well worth the money. a whole day out.

Last time my ex visited from Germany he and his wife stayed there. they bought food in the Fair Oak tesco express and hung out with the kids all day quite happily. there is a pool

There's a Crown Carvery a couple of miles away if you want cheap eating. I really would recommend going into the zoo. I know it's expensive but it's really lovely.
