Lovely couple of hours spent here. My husband loved the meerkats and I loved the donkey. There are tortoises, guinea pigs, ostriches, deers and plenty more. They give sanctuary and homes to unwanted so don't judge them on their conditions. Narrow road to access but a couple of passing places and only lasts a couple of minutes Good size car park and shaded parking around edges Pleasant staff Some uneven area under the trees but there were buggies and prams going around so plenty of access to the Disabled accessible toilet and changing toilet all clean No cafe on site just a drinks machine and an ice cream freezer in the shop Luckily we took a picnic and sat under the parasols in the picnic area which was clean and tidy Nice to see recycled materials used for the benches and parasols and birds well spread out in good size pens and enclosures Merekat at 12 when we visited one of the wallabies has a fairly young Joey in her pouch whish was lovely to see The goats and ponies come up to be fed Hand washing facilities around the site We had a very pleasant time Lovely to see the which were rescued and older ones. The park was very hilly in places, so you need to be fairly fit and the ground a little uneven, but overall a fantastic place to visit and no time restrictions so you're under no pressure to rush around. Would definitely recommend Great wildlife park, with a great variety of (see pictures). Went during May half time and it was busy but never felt over crowded. So much to see and can spent 2 hours here with kids. Kids can feed certain which is great fun for them. Me and my partner went here because we love animals, seemed nice online and reasonably priced so we went for it. We absolutely loved it, you buy food for the and you can hand feed them which is amazing, they had baby deer in the deer enclosure which was a highlight for us. There's also a parrot at the front of the zoo that talks to you and he was hilarious I must say. We bought some sandwiches (they were pretty bad to be honest) and it was raining so the lady said there was an indoor enclosure for us to sit and eat which was ideal. You get to feed the goats, small horses, donkeys, deer, and sheep. The meerkat was a bit rubbish, you just buy the pot and throw the contents in, when it said meerkat feeding, I thought you'd at least be in the enclosure with them. So that was slightly disappointing, but the others more than made up for it. There's a cute little gift shop if you want to buy a souvenir too. We're on holiday but would definitely go again, we were there 3 and a half hours with lunch in-between so it's a good afternoon out. Wildlife rescue centre with variety of & a farm area tucked away in the countryside. Good place to take children or for anyone who likes animals. Some areas wheelchair accessible, but not the entire site. Can buy animal feed in the shop on the way in. Cafe closed currently (possibly plan for refurbishment), but can buy sandwiches, snacks and drinks in the shop. Little woodland walk pleasant. Staff friendly, helpful & enthusiastic about their animals. Good value day out. We visited a few days ago. My family, including myself, enjoyed the day. There are lots of different to see. My kids loved the and were able to actually stroke them. We spent a good few hours here also giving a picnic. Overall experience was lovely. Absolutely lovely little sanctuary. For the price we saw a lot more than we expected. Love that you can get quite close. Got a fab picture of one of the meerkats and I even saw a sign saying you can feed them at certain times! Arrived at 3pm and bit of a rush round as close at 4 (was informed by lovely lady at desk). Genuinely is lots to see and nice walk down to see the porcupines and ostrich+zebra. Meerkat , monkeys of various types, birds, reptiles. Enclosures are what you expect from a sanctuary but it's very well worth the visit and the is good crack. Also cheap entrance fee considering the upkeep. Beautiful location and lovely to hear the family story behind how it all started, great variety of which all seemed content and relaxed to be there. Lovely to get so close to some animals, particularly the deer 🦌 We went here last minute and are all so glad we did Website change monitoring Monitor any webpage for changes – get instant email alerts when prices drop, new jobs are posted, products come back in stock, or competitors update their sites.
