Venerable science station owns the space as it used to own it's targets it first studied. Plenty for old and young alike. Optics of the stars in the auditorium needs fine tuning and there is absolutely no need to mow every blade of grass when the dearth of insects is a global problem.The arboretum tries hard to make up for it but a little more thought required on this issue.Splendid helpful staff.

Fascinating day out with a jaw-dropping view of the telescope. Fun 360 cinema shows. Ok ish food. If it was in the US it would be a massive theme park, but it’s all a bit British and restrained.

A great nerdy little day out. The dome tour was short and sweet. Very informative. The staff are knowledgeable, but the whole experience is geared more towards school children. Still very enjoyable as an adult if you're into nerdy history and space.

As I love science, space, stars end evertyhing else that comes along, this place was a must to see and explore. Listening to a guide and learning about radio telescope itself was an amazing experience. Seeing that mamoth moving was so exciting. I recomend seeing and participating in planetarium show, listening and watching looped videos and if your hunger start kicking, there are nibbles and drinks right within your reach.

Really impressed with today's visit. Thought my 14-year old would be bored after a while, but he wasn't. He read as much as he could and, who knows, it may just ignite something within for him to learn a little more perhaps. Dinner in the cafe, reasonably priced too. Good day all-in-all.

Excellent day out at Jodrell Bank. Fascinating story behind the founding of this significant world heritage site. Set in stunning Cheshire countryside, Nice walks, cafe good but pricey! Plenty of parking and toilets are spotless.Well worth a visit.

I'm glad I didn't read the negative reviews beforehand. First time visiting, and we loved it. It's not a cheap trip, but it was interesting, fascinating, informative, and educational. Plenty of space in the car park, which you also had to pay for, clearly people were parking up and not paying to go inside. We spoke to the staff who made the trip even more enjoyable due to their enthusiasm and knowledge.

Great place to lose a couple of hours.Easy access to car park.Quite flat, so easy to get around.The film show is excellent and worth the wait to see.Decent cafe to grab some light lunch and a drink.The walk down to the radio telescope is only a couple of minutes.Highly recommendedIf you intend to return get your tickets online as this qualifies for free entry for a year.If you buy tickets at the gate it's just single entry.Wheelchair accessible throughout.
