My children had visited previously but this was my first time and I have to say I was impressed by the sheer size of it. Lots of outdoor space so it didnt feel crowded. The children absolutely loved seeing all the animals and the outdoor play area is a massive bonus. We had a pizza which was delicious and freshly baked. There is a coffee shop and plenty ice cream to buy too. The gift shop is a lovely addition and very reasonably priced too. All in all we had a fabulous day out and the weather helped also spent nearly four hours there. We will definitely be going back during the next holidays.
A fair few years back I visited here and swore that I'd never return BUT a few people told me to try it again. I gave it a chance and fair play it's definitely had an upgrade and work done to enclosures. The staff where friendly and helpful. For the price you can't really complain at the amount of animals, especially as it's our closest zoo (to us) We didn't buy food to keep it a cheap trip but the ice creams looked lovely.
Absolutely brilliant place. Went Wednesday 27th May and had such a good time we are taking my niece on Friday! Everything you want from a family day out. The zoo is on the smaller side but is laid out incredibly well. The staff are all friendly and helpful. The price is brilliant across the zoo. Nothing overpriced. Beautiful well kept and maintained enclosures and a great selection of animals to see. The biggest compliment I can give is that the animals all look happy and healthy. This is clearly run with the animals welfare first and foremost and not as a place to just stare at unhappy, lifeless creatures. You may have to visit some enclosures a few times to spot the more elusive animals but it is well worth the effort. The scheduled talks are brilliant and informative. My son did the meerkat feeding and now wants to protect all meerkats. Each of us had a different favourite animal (mine is the Serval Venus). Absolutely wonderful place and well worth the visit. Looking forward to going again tomorrow!
Brilliant family day out. Fantastic value for money. Not a huge zoo but a good variety of animals to see. There are a couple of parks, a man made beach area and air pillows to keep the kids occupied. Plenty of picnic tables around and a couple of cafés. Plenty of free parking available on site. The staff were very friendly. Certainly worth a visit.
Well ! What a great little Zoo. We went with our Daughter for a birthday present. Spent a lot longer there than expected. Great day out with lots to see and do. Friendly helpful team and you actually get to see most of the animals. Very reasonable price and so is the food and drink inside as well. Recommend for a visit.
