My boyfriend came here on a spur of the moment decision. The price to get in is very expensive we felt for what you get, luckily on the day we went some things were not open so we got vouchers for another free visit also, so the price seemed slightly better. On a whole the park was lovely, well kept... More

Had a great day lots to see kids & adults alike. But please take a picnic. The cafe was overpriced and not a lot of choice very disappointing so be prepared!! Also a disappointment was no family tickets, all to pay individually which made it quite expensive. More

Great morning feeding the lions, tigers, leopards, and painted dogs. This is a chance to get really close to the carnivores and get an insight into their lives from your guide. We are regular visitors so we are familiar with the animals - this takes it to the next level! More

A great place to take the kids for a few hours. The enclosures are large and open, with good opportunities to walk amongst free roaming lemurs and wallabies, as well as seeing lions and other big game. The thing I liked best about this place is it is very relaxed, the staff are really friendly and there are lots of... More

Travelled over 100 miles to this place and it was justified. This place isn't the biggest and has much fewer animal than other zoos; however what it lacks in quantity it makes up for in quality. It has at least 4 walk in enclosures where you can get up close to within inches and in many cases stroke and feed... More
