Toilets

Toilets are located near the visitor centre in the main car park. They are open when the park is open to visitors. There is also a Changing Places accessible facility in the visitor centre, including an overhead hoist and wall-mounted bed. You will also find the baby changing unit in this space. These facilities do not require a RADAR key.

The Café

The café serves a range of sandwiches and baguettes, hot and cold refreshments, snacks, delicious cakes and ice creams. We pride ourselves on offering great customer experience, with a focus on using high quality, locally sourced produce.
