This exceptional animal park offers breathtaking panoramic views. The interactive animal experiences are particularly engaging. While the restaurant's cuisine was excellent, the pricing may present a challenge for families on a limited budget. As an alternative, you are welcome to bring their own picnic with a lovely area to eat.

We went on a REALLY hot day the other weekend. Took drinks and a few snacks. Purchased some ice creams. Prices a little high for your cornetto style ones but it was so hot we needed them! Didn't use the bar/restaurant. Toilets were clean lots of places to wash hands around the site due to touching animals. You can entre the pigs and goat areas. We did the pig are a few times it was lovely and they are so sweet. There is usually animal handling of rabbits I believe but was not on as too warm. Paid £54 for the family ticket (2 adults 2 kids) Lovely walk around. Some areas could do with tlc as the enclosures don't seem very big on some of them but not sure how long this place has been open it was our first time attending. Would go again but for a longer day maybe as it was too warm to stay there due to the crazy weather recently.

What an amazing experience. Did the Capybara experience and it was fun! The keeper was well informed and lots of information given. All staff were really friendly. Nice to have different talks and experiences during the day to learn more about animals and getting to hold smaller animals. The price for the experience was quite reasonable. The capybara meeting, animal food for the goats, entrance fee, a voucher to use in the cafe/gift shop were all included in the price of the capybara experience. Definitely recommend going! 😊

We visited here on Sunday the 15th of Febuary and I cannot recommend this wonderful place enough. The animals are adorable and well taken care of. We booked a fox experience and this will stay with us forever, special shoutout to Paul who made it so engaging and was so knowledgeable as well. We took part in a meet and greet in the barn as well which was really exciting, especially for those with young family members. Staff everywhere were lovely, would recommend to any animal lover and families. Food was exceptional as well, a lovely roast at a fair price.

A lovely place to visit with or without children. It was the 1st time for me and my niece we went on the weekend of the Christmas market and just absolutely loved it. The stalls had things that was all homemade and everyone was so friendly and chatty. They had so much to choose from and it wasn't the ' usual ' brickaback we ended up buying lots of goodies ☺️.. Then the animals,, wow, they have snow foxes, raccoons, skunk which was out having a walk with a keeper so funny seeing it on a lead, red foxes, owls, storks, tiny goats, so so many more to look at , it was lovely, after we went into the restaurant and it was lovely warm and very cosy. The log fire was on ,decorations up . We enjoyed having a cup of mulled wine by the fire. What a magical lovely place to visit everyone so friendly definitely will be visiting again and to have a meal next time
