Very impressed with the wildlife park. Well set out and plenty of information about each animal to read and digest. The keeper talks are well worth listening to. One every half hour to keep you on your toes to find the next one! The cafe serves hot & cold snacks and drinks. The shop is worth looking around as you exit for souvenirs. All in all a perfect day for all animal lovers of all ages.
Wonderful place - small enough to cover it in a couple of hours and loads of native wildlife species to look at, including badgers and red squirrels which you rarely see in the wild. The talks are really interesting, especially the owl display, and the staff are very friendly. It might look like the displays are empty but a bit of patience and quiet brings the animals out.
Great place for family with children, but also for anyone interested in British wildlife! The staff is very friendly and helpful. Highly recommend that you arrive early enough to see the red squirrel which are active only in the morning. Try to attend all the talks about the animals, every 30 minutes starting from 10:30am, because they are very informative and entertaining! On a hot day, the animals might hide in the shade and most of them tend to sleep at midday, but they will come out again in the afternoon. The last show at 4pm is the Owl display and that’s something worth staying to watch. Some of my favourites are the owls, foxes, squirrels, dears, and stoats. Book the tickets online in advance so you can get a discount too.
Lovely place. We saw some lovely animals. The talks were excellent and the staff were so friendly and informative, happy to spend so much time with us. Take your time and be patient, you'll see so much more. The harvest mouse was amazing. Stay for the owl display.
All the staff are so knowledgeable and kind. The real highlight is the owl display, they fly so close to you and it is easy to hear during the demonstration. Come early to grab a seat during busier periods. We took a picnic to the park and found there was plenty of seating to enjoy. Patience is needed to spot some of the smaller creatures, but it is lovely to visit somewhere dedicated to the marvellous creatures we have here in Britain.
What an amazing place. Was hoping for a good couple of hours here with the boys...stayed all day. The best enclosures I have ever seen and the staff are not only highly knowledgeable but super friendly and approachable. We will be back in the spring time
Great place to visit....Getting up close to the red squirrels is amazing and worth the entry alone. You also get to see many species you just won't see easily in the wild, Pine Martins for example. Staff talks every 30 mins bring the animals out and informative. Good facilities on site, food/coffee easonably priced.
Had no real expectations and wow, what a lovely surprise. Saw probably about 90% of its inhabitants on two circuits and it's deffo worth giving the day as you'll probably see stuff you didn't on the first pass. How is this place not massively well known perhaps it is and we've just been blissfully unaware, really great day out and super knowledgeable staff.
Charming experience and a great way to see more of the natural wildlife people miss on a day to day basis. They support rehabilitation of wildlife and help the populations of species we just don't get to see alot of. To be able to walk through the red squirrel enclosure and see them up close is wonderful. On site emenities offer everything you need to make a day of it but it's not so large that you will miss anything. For a quick trip you can work your way around in just over an hour. To really see it all and take it in I would aim for two hours. If you want to know more you can stay for regular educational pieces and demonstrations. If you haven't seen birds of prey up close its great to watch the trainers and keepers working with them. In short if you're in the area or needing a day out it's worth a visit. For children it is a great education on species they may never notice.
Lovely day out with the kids "they enjoyed it" and friends. I do feel though that they could do with more things to do.. maybe some people just walking around willing to ask questions or point out hiding / hard to see animals. Or activities for the kids.. We didn't really see many animals loads of harvest mice when you first walk in to pay. Plenty of rats and x2 heards of dear... "which the talk on was excellent by the man giving it.. it was very informative" Just a shame about the price really £36.00 for x2 adults and x1 child works out £12.00 each. Just for looking at green bushes and rats and mainly deer!!
