Can't recommend highly enough! Lynton is such an amazing place to send your little one. The staff are all fantastic and put so much time and effort in to the children and their development! The building itself has such a homely vibe which is great for creating a 'home from home' environment for the little ones.

This nursery is so unique, the staff really do go above and beyond. It’s definitely like a home from home feel at the nursery. The staff know all the children because it’s small and that brings a real warm and nurturing feel. The food is amazing, I will never beat it lol. The children are able to explore the lovely garden which is inviting and exciting. My little girl who is now 4 went and my little boy has just started. I couldn’t recommend this nursery enough. Thanks for all you hard work.
