Reviews
"The staff are super helpful in this uphill maze like zoo! Although each animal habitat is easy to find you find yourself wondering how much further up the hill you need to go. The Forrest-like zoo keeps you dry and warm when exploring and there is definitely a lot to explore here. The zoo offers a couple of places to eat and drink and has maps around for your sense of direction. We went whilst they were getting ready for Halloween and it looked amazing. The carefully thought out zoo experience is definitely something I would return too or recommend you to go and see it yourself"
"A nice day out with some lovely scenic grounds and a very large mix of animals. While it’s not a huge zoo, it is still reasonably sized and nicely spaced out with a decent layout. Considering you could easily spend at least a few hours here and the price of a ticket isn’t crazy, it’s definitely worth a visit. Also nice to be able to see koalas in the UK and that they do seem to be very aware of animal welfare."
"Bought tickets online in advance. Easy to get to by public transport simply by tapping your bank card to pay for the bus ticket. Arrived 15 min early before the Zoo was open. There was already a queue by people who like us were there early. The best animals, in our opinion, were the pandas. Even on a week day is quite busy. This unfortunately makes it less of an experience as the animals prefer to stay q in a quite place hiding and even when an animal is out can't really see because of the many people around. The best part were the dinosaur trail, truly entertaining for kids. There ware two playgrounds. They were not mentioned anywhere but huge bonus. Top of the hill by the dinosaur trail limited offering of food - pizza and burgers, together with drinks and ice cream and tables. The food was really good quality."
"It was a nice family experience. Lots of walking uphill so it makes sense to wear comfortable footwear. I enjoyed seeing most of the animals. Some were unavailable due to different reasons I think. A few were simply not visible but those were mostly the smaller ones. My little one enjoyed the new dinosaur exhibit. It was good. I plan to visit again when my nephews are here so they can also enjoy the animals."
"We go every year and we love it. I adore snowflake, he is my favourite penguin and I enjoy spotting him and making sure he's still well. I fed the penguins once and it was such a great experience. My son has been every year since he was born (except for covid!) and he loves it equally. I recommend taking a packed lunch and sitting on the benches up by the dinosaurs. We saw a sloth for the first time yesterday too! The staff were friendly and knowledgeable as always."
