[Amanda Marson](https://www.google.com/maps/contrib/105113418657652747152/reviews) ★★★★★

A wonderful experience, lovely staff, so knowledgeable about the animals. The talks were great, especially the hedgehogs and bird talks. Seeing the babies being fed in the nursery was another highlight. We saw baby squirrels being fed. There is a terrific playground to or children with several ride on toys available for little ones and a flying fox for the older ones. The hospitals work saving iured animals is fantastic.

I visited Tiddywinkles Animal Sanctuary near Thame recently, and I have to say, it was such a heartwarming experience. From the moment you arrive, you can tell how much care and love goes into looking after the animals. The sanctuary is really well maintained, and it feels peaceful and welcoming. The staff and volunteers were so friendly and happy to share stories about the animals—they clearly know each one by personality and history, which makes the visit feel really personal. I loved getting up close to some of the rescued animals; it’s amazing to see them happy and thriving in such a safe environment. It can get busy on weekends, but the layout makes it easy to explore without feeling rushed. They also have a small cafe and gift shop which is perfect for a quick treat or picking up a memento. Overall, if you love animals or just want a calm, uplifting day out, I can’t recommend Tiddywinkles enough. It’s clear every little detail is done with the animals’ wellbeing in mind—it really makes you feel part of their journey.

We went this morning (me husband and 2 kids) and we had a lovely time! We found tiggywinkles from a day out website for the kids and was a half hour drive but definitely worth the visit. We got to walk round and see some of the animals there, and there was a playground that the kids really enjoyed! 10/10 recommend. Thank you

This place is amazing. They have the largest wildlife hospital in the UK here and rescue 13000 animals a year prioritising releasing them back into the wild. If you have kids, please take them!!! At the very least they have the friendliest Dear in the world!
