What visitors say
Very neat and well maintained zoo. It’s not very big but the staff are knowledgeable. The main highlights are snow leopard, capybara, wallabies and creatures from South American region. We had a good time visiting the zoo :)

A brilliant little zoo, plenty of space for the animals but a nice compact zoo which I’m sure would be handy for families and people with mobility problems. Great to see plenty of investment going on and seeing the improvements in the two years since we last visited. Pasty and a cup of tea went down a treat in the great little cafe on site. Really enjoyed today and will definitely revisit again soon
