Hidden gem of a place. Really unique in that you're able to walk in with the animals which everyone loves. The food is lovely and reasonably priced and there's plenty of picnic places around the park. There's a huge bouncy castle and climbing frame for the kids, which again is surrounded by picnic benches so plenty of chance for adults to have a rest while the kids blow off some steam. Definitely worth a visit, highly recommend.
A lovely place full of different animals. Loved the walk through with the lemurs, wallabies and red squirrel. Even had a red squirrel jump up our leg!! The animals look happy and healthy and the keepers seem to know their stuff. Listened to a talk about lemurs and tapirs. We were there for about 2 hours which was enough time to see each animal as was quiet around. My husband had a bubble waffle which he enjoyed. Would definitely recommend a visit here and would love to return if ever near again.
My 5 year old did the mini zoo keeper experience here and he absolutely loved it. The staff were really friendly and patient with him, and even let my three year old join in at parts, even though he wasn't strictly part of the experience. The rest of the park is wonderful with a nice selection of animals, and the large play area was a big hit. A perfect size to make your way around without feeling like you need to rush to see everything like some larger attractions. Overall it was a great day out and I especially recommend the experience days. We will likely be back in a year or so when my youngest is old enough to do them.
What a wonderful day. May sister and daughter had previously visited several years ago and it was wonderful to see how far the park has developed. We went around to visit all the animals and had such amazing experiences. We were most excited to stroke and feed the wallabies. All the staff we met were helpful, polite and informative.
We took our two pre-school infants for a day out, to show them the wonder of animals that they would be very unlikely to encounter normally. The facilities and range of animals are basic - the proprietors and assistants are clearly enthusiasts who have built up the business. The animals are limited in number, as are the amenities. However, don't let this put you off visiting, as this means you are able to get very close to them and some you are able to safely pet. Several schools were present and, as a retired teacher, I have no doubt that their experiences will be of immense value. I would recommend any parents of young children to put this on their itinerary list.
Brilliant day out for all the family. The park has had so much care and love put into it and everything is set out with the kids experience in mind. It's a great size for little legs with lots to see to keep them and the grown ups engaged. The pizza and coffee are delish too!
Well presented and well staffed wildlife park / zoo. Unlike other similar attractions you can get up close to most of the animals at staged and guided sessions led by the knowledgable staff. There is a good variety of Food on site, we went all out for the really tasty thin crust stone baked pizzas and bubble waffles, ice creams and drinks. Kids had juices and we had a good quality tea and coffee. Red squirrel feeding was an informative session and the kids got to see these illusive and rare creatures up close. Recommended.
Great experience for the money. Some enclosures are TBC although this wasn't highlighted. We spent 15 minutes looking for red squirrels in the new walk through only to find a sign in a small enclosure near the lemurs that they were moving to the new walk through soon. We were able to feed wallabies and saw zebras, deer, penguins, alpacas, sheep, goats, otters, rabbits etc. There's an outdoor bouncy castle and an indoor play area with seats, as well as a coffee shop.
Our 1st visit and we'll definitely be back. We did the mini keeper day for my daughter and goddaughter. Tammy and Josh the keepers made it amazing. We meet meerkat, Jack the giant tortoise, lemurs just 6 of the worldwide 112 varieties and Vietnamese deer. After that we went around the zoo to see all the other amazing animals. Great experience for a 5 and 6yrs old girls, an experience they'll never forget. The zoo is a lovely size plus has a great play area and huge bouncy castle, all included with the entrance price.
What a great place to visit. Fantastic for the kids to see and walk with some of the animals. It's. Lot bigger than you think. Very good cafe with a wide selection of food served by very efficient and friendly staff. We'll worth a visit!
