A stunning dome building this has been fabulously recreated as a rainforest . It is home to inquisitive squirrel monkeys as well as waterfowl all of which are given a stunning environment.
KIDDIES ZOO
Kune Kune Pigs, goats, Zebu Cattle, donkeys and Llamas.
DINOSAUR SAFARI
Takes about 30 mins to get around included in price, nice setting, well planted up with informative signing. Some models like the mammoth are very realistic but some are a bit poor. Worth going in.
SHOWS
Lots. Sea lion show at 11.15 am and 2pm with feeding and diving. Elephants at 12.30pm health check, feeding and question and answer session.
Creepy crawlies at 1.45pm, reindeer at 3pm big cat feeding at 3.15 pm and otter talk at 3.30pm.
All excellent and very informative.
FACILITIES
Good sized with quite nice food very reasonably priced and you can sit in and out, very clean. Quite a few gift shops main one has stunning art work and photography as well as toys. Lots of clean toilets, impressive entrance and miniature railway.
PRICE Adult ;pound;12.95, Child £8.95, Family £37
OVERALL
An excellent day out will visit again, good variety of animals and all kept in clean and spacious surroundings.
Great
