A little biased but I think it's pretty great 😁 Best time for a visit is 15:00-15:30 as both meerkats and porcupines are fed outside around this point, otherwise porcs are very hard to see
Pretty park but staff said they couldn't do anything about a baby pigeon dying in the middle of the park :(
Took my great niece to a craft morning at the centre. It was fantastic and guy holding it was brilliant. Saw the meerkats whilst waiting
The Aviary opened at 10:30 so we had a chance to walk around the park. Meerkats and other birds are on show. A good way to spend 45 minutes in a Sunday morning.
A lovely aviary/animal enclosure. I loved the meerkats and the talking parrots. There were also a tortoise and porcupines that were inside at the time of visiting and one enclosure that said something new was coming soon.
