What visitors say
A lovely place to visit. I haven't been in a long time but it's nice to see and hear them still helping rehabilitate and release seals today. All of the animals are well cared for, keepers are knowledgeable and staff are friendly. It was a shame to hear about the loss of their meerkats. Lots of gifts, toys and ways to donate and help keep the important work going despite them being grateful for just purchasing tickets. Love that they are dog friendly and can go anywhere except for in the butterfly house, restaurant and gift shop. Definitely worth a stop if your in the area! Reasonable prices and great for kids to see the good work they do.

We had a lovely visit to the Seal Sanctuary and really enjoyed our day. There was plenty to see, and it was great learning about the animals and the important rescue work they do. My niece absolutely loved it and was fascinated by all the different animals. The butterfly enclosure was definitely one of the highlights, it was beautiful, with butterflies flying all around, making it a really special experience. Overall, it was a fun and enjoyable day out, and we'd happily recommend it to anyone visiting the area, especially families with children. 🦭🦋😊

What a fantastic little place. We walked in to hear a talk on the rehabilitation and release of seal pups. The young lady was very interesting and showed passion about the project. There is a reptile house, goats, turkeys, alpacas, guinea pigs, rabbits penguins and of course seals. A bird sanctuary with some beautiful birds and amazing butterflies, all flying freely in the greenhouses. A large cafe. The food was not great. Still a great place to visit and support a charity that has reintegrated over 1000 seals back into the wild. The goats and Alpacas were happy yo be fed too.
