Great place very educational and interesting also relaxing place to look around lots of outdoor space to picnic and relax. Helpful staff. The tram up to the top was it working which was a bit disappointing and some bits are still closed due to Covid and not offering a full range off food in the shop. The walk around in the woods and to the small lake is nice and not as long as they say it is 30min on the long walk for a well able person.

The wife and I went back to CAT today, we last visited about 15-20 yrs ago when the kids were still kids. Wow, what a dissapointment. Don't get me wrong, it's set in some lovely natural surroundings and we didn't expect Disney world but we thought that with the current climate and environmental issues in the news that CAT would have evolved and grown too but it seems stuck in the mud ( no pun intended ). At 8.50 each to get in I expected so much more. Sad.

Such a shame, has lots of potential. Beautiful surroundings but it was like visiting a eco place from 20 years ago.. Nothing much to see or learn about. However the coffees in the cafe was delicious!

CAT is a must-see-site if you are interested in alternative technologies or not. It also has a great cafeteria with vegan and vegetarian options that rock and excellent coffee! Try to go early so you have plenty of time to see everything especially if you have children - you will need it. Don't forget to visit the shop at the end as it is really worth it!

Fantastic place for all ages. Learnt a lot about being more sustainable and took away some ideas to implement at home. You can gift aid your ticket cost and get free access for a year. Cafe does great vegan food and the cakes were awesome.
