Almond Valley

"We had our first ever visit to the Almond valley Heritage Centre in West Lothian. We found it on the ASVA website and it was not a place we had ever heard of before, so a pleasant surprise. We've been to East Links Farm in East Lothian a few times and the kids had asked to go back, so was looking for an alternative. There is a lot of activities and interactive stuff throughout the museum, which you should visit before heading out into the grounds. There was a lot more animals than we had expected and the various kids activities around were fantastic. The new addition of the covered climbing area at the top of the grounds, where we found a couple of Highland coos. We enjoyed lunch in Morags Café and had we had time, the kids would have loved the large soft play, next time! Lot of outside seating areas, so visitors can bring their own picnic and refreshments. We didn't make the tractors ride, which goes on the hour, every hour. Enjoy when you visit!"

"Play area for kids are amazing the kids love it the only down fall I have with it ,is I would like to see more animals,the cafe shop is a little over priced,the ice cream hut sells other things too the kids box is not worth the money tbh ,if on a budget defo take your own food and drink x"

"Great day out for everyone, lots of different animals for the kids to see they also have a train ans tractor ride my kids loved, and the play park bits they have are amazing my kids could play in them all day lots of different things to do, I took a picnic for us to have you will find plenty of spaces to sit and have something to eat will be back for sure"

"It's the first time we visited with my son, and nieces and wasn't expecting much and thought the price was abit steep but kids had an absolute blast! Good variety of farm animals, Great play areas, train/tractor rides (extra charges) and even a heritage museum! There was something new round every corner! We were fasting so did not checkout the tearoom but we all had an amazing time! Definitely worth the money."

"What a fantastic place to spend the day. Great fun for all the family. So much to see and do. Highly recommended."
