What visitors say
We went to the armadillo encounter and had THE BEST TIME! The entire place was incredible and we saw so many amazing animals. Not very busy at all, despite a sunny Saturday, and such lovely staff.

We had a wonderful day here last Sunday. Highlight was watching the bats. What a wonderful experience and very reasonably priced at £8.50 per adult. Lovely staff and nice gift shop.

A great day out with the grandkids lots of different areas with animals from all over the world. Large park for the kids and picnic areas scattered over the site. Informative plaques describing the animals and if endangered, really well set out and child and disabled friendly with paths sweeping throughthel site.

Leaving a 5star review for "another mary" who is too simple to press dismiss when google asked her to review the place that she never went to. So instead she left a 1star review.
