There'll be a warm welcome awaiting you, with a fresh new look in the shop and cafe. We've even created a cosy new sofa area, so there's a comfy space for you to unwind and enjoy our new menu. Be one of our first ten customers and you can even enjoy a free hot drink! 

Family fun fishing is open as usual throughout the half term holiday (and beyond), and to celebrate our reopening, it's Blue Fish Week. Catch one of these special, colourful trout and win a prize! Plus there'll be free hot chocolate with every fun fishing ticket and some sweet treats in the cafe. 

Other developments for the new season include the launch of our new customer loyalty card and a family season ticket, which means families can visit as many times as they want throughout the year, for just the price of two admissions.

The nature trail is showing the first signs of spring. The birds are singing and the goats, alpacas and pigs are enjoying being back in their trail homes, ready to meet our visitors. We're busy putting the finishing touches to a new ecommerce website, which we hope will be ready by Easter, so soon you'll be able to book tickets and purchase our delicious shop products online.

And don't forget, the countdown to the Tour De France Grand Depart has started, and there's just four and a half months until the world's greatest cycling event passes through Kilnsey Park Estate and we host Velofest - we're getting excited already!

There's a host of special events in the diary for 2014, so we hope you'll join us for some family fun in the Yorkshire Dales this season.
