Parent summary

Quex Park offers a welcoming experience with warm, cosy spaces and attentive staff. There's real variety across the site with multiple areas to explore at your own pace, and quieter out-of-session visits are available. Some accessibility considerations exist depending on your child's specific needs.

Best times to visit
