About

A large public park area served by bus routes from the city centre (Hanley). There is a small admission charge, but various activities are available there such as a petting zoo and children's adventure playground. Depending on the weather it is also possible to rent boats and jet-skis for fun on the expansive lakes and the natural beauty of the Gardens can be exquisite. "The Monkey Forest" has free-ranging Barbary macaques. Trentham Treetop Adventure offers over 30 exciting treetop obstacles from mid-air jumps, knee wobbling tight ropes.

Trentham Estate is an estate and gardens, near the village of Trentham in Staffordshire, England, just on the southern fringe of the city of Stoke-on-Trent. It is centred on the ruins of Trentham Hall, and also hosts a monkey forest and a shopping village.
