Fantastic family day out and incredibly good value for money! Only 6.50 per car no individual entry tickets. The food at the new cafe was delicious, perfectly cooked, great quality and I was surprised at how reasonably priced it was! The staff were all very friendly and helpful. Beautiful trails to walk, lovely friendly animals to pet and feed and we enjoyed going in the pen with the goats too. Great play area for kids and you can bring your dog along too! Will definitely visit again.

We just went to get kids out in the fresh air. Quite a bit for the children to do. You only pay per car not per person. Going round looking at all the different animals they have. The staff very pleasant and helpful. The kids really enjoyed it.

Visited with friends and our little ones, on Easter weekend. Children aged 2-10 all loved it. Had a decent walk around the park, saw and fed lots of animals, played on playground, go-karts (small charge for this), had a bite (of wild boar!!) to eat.. whilst the park was super busy, we still parked up fine and it didnt feel TOO busy/crowded. Friendly staff dotted about, only downside for us was that many of the paths weren't pram friendly, but there are still being changes made before reopen next month. Super helpful having one price per car! Thank you and we'll be back! 😀

Great family day out. First time and loved the place. Our five year old loved seeing the goats and alpacas.
