“Way to much money to get in for what it is again ”

★☆☆☆☆

written by JimmyHaley464 on 19/08/2016

Me and wife and my children visited today paid 51 quid to get in and to see not much ..look I know it has to pay for the upkeep but it has to be worth the money I had visited in the year it opened and thought we give it another go ..not good ..all that had changed was a new dome tent .which had no chairs to sit on and no fans to cool it down it was very hot ... Sorry but 51 quid is a lot for me to spend gutted .I do hope it get through its hard time as it shows at the moment ..... Also bouncy castle which is unmanned and so many children on it at 1 time ..... Needs to be cheaper for what's there

“Relaxing and Enjoyable”

★★★★★

written by on 23/04/2013

Visited Manorpark on Friday, 19 April 2013 and thoroughly enjoyed the experience. Very relaxing walking around and feeding the wallabies. Lovely to see the animals not caged and enjoyed the story of Steve and Lisa and now Bryn the baby. Also not too commercialised which was nice. Keep up the good work.

“Fantastic for all the family”

★★★★★

written by on 12/04/2012

We'd seen the park on tv and love their ethos of having endangered species, and proper sized enclosures rather than zoos with a massive selection of animals in cramped spaces. We visited with buggies, children, adults and pensioners and it was smiles all around - the babies best bit was meeting the sheep face to face, the kids loved the free tricycles to zoom around on, we all liked seeing what endangered status the different animals were at and learning thier facts and the adults loved that we could sit with a coffee at the end of the day and watch the kids playing - and how rewarding to hear all they'd learnt during the homeward journey. We were so enamoured with it we bought season tickets and the kids have already been back within a week! If you love animals, and want to are them in wide open spaces then this is for you!

“Excellent leisurely and educational day out”

★★★★★

written by LinsH on 11/12/2011

Manor House Wildlife Park is set in wonderful spacious grounds. Some enclosures you can get very up close and personal with the animals and my daughter loved feeding the wallabys. One of the keepers was feeding the meerkats when we arrived at their enclosure and what we don't know about meerkats now really isn't worth knowing. I think you have to remember this is a conservation park and your entrance fee contributes towards this work, as well as the vast costs that must be incurred by the feeding and general day to day care of these animals. Animals can't (and should not) be expected to be always out and be 'performing' - they have enough space and cover to be out of view sometimes. But I'm happier about this, it's balancing their welfare with human entertainment. It's not a commercial place and the core is only and simply to look at the animals. You can take a picnic but the restaurant offers wonderful food, much of it locally sourced. There is a children's play area, with a barn and hay bales to climb and jump off. Simple but the children love it. If you're looking for an unhurried, educational, healthy (there is 52 acres to stroll round) day out and also like to help conserve endangered animals then this is the place for you.

written by on 26/04/2011

Complete rip-off, there are hardley any animals. The enclosure often refers to the wrong animals or animals that are invisible. We travelled all the way from Swansea to spend £20 to get in for about an hour, if that.

Really not worth the time or money!!!

written by on 09/02/2011

after taking a winter break we thought it would be a good idea to visit the manor house wildlife park. it didn't live up to our expectations. we understood that it was winter but to pay 9.95 each when there was hardly any animals to be seen we belive that this was not worth the money. we wouldn't go again and we wouldn't recommend the park to any one else.

★★★★★

written by HeatherO on 26/08/2010

I love this place. We returned after 12 months and were very impressed with the improvements. Steve and Lisa came out to see us, which my 4 year old loved as she has been talking about Steve all year. Its well worth seeing every time we visit Pembrokeshire. We took a picnic as there is plenty of space. Staff very friendly and helpful everywhere clean and tidy. Cant wait to visit again next year.

“We took our 4 children to Manor house, it cost us...”

★☆☆☆☆

written by Familyof6 on 26/08/2010

We took our 4 children to Manor house, it cost us nearly £40 entry fee, we were expecting a full day out but had seen everything within an hour and a half.
the wallaby walkthrough was closed (which was understandable as an accident had happened days earlier)
There werent that many animals out, we just walked around and could see the dissapointment on the childrens faces.
the gibbons were lovely but were up high in the trees so the children didnt see much, the turtles were in doors so the children couldnt see them, the marmoissetes were nowhere to be seen and the lema walkthrough was a total waste of time as there were only 2 or 3 out and they were asleep, there were no rhinos just an empty space where they should be.
The shop was over priced and we were dissapointed that Anna Ryder-Richardson was nowhere to be seen, the t.v shows her greeting people and walking around but we didnt see her at all, which dissapointed the children further.
All in all it was a waste of money and a dissapointment to the children and it meant us taking our children somewhere else so they could have a full day out.

★★★★★

written by Claire84 on 24/08/2010

My partner and I spent a full day here and had a fantastic day out. The park is very spacious, enough room for all the anilmals we found. We had lunch there, including two cakes, and we thought the price was very reasonable, as our food was very nice indeed! The entry price was excellent, especially as we spent all day there, we felt we had our money's worth. Anna Ryder Richardson was around all day, chatting to visitors and making people feel welcome. Nice to see her out and about. We took lots of photo's that day, and we will be returning again soon. I would highly recommend this park for a day out!!

★★★★☆

written by on 02/08/2010

took our 3 year old and she loved it!! only downside i could find that there wasnt enough toilets around, only at the Manor House a fair walk from the animal enclosers we had to run all the way back from the rhino hut!!
we loved the picnic and play areas ,and the hay barn was a huge success.the only animal we did not see was the zebra,a very child friendly day out and did not feel"ripped off " in any way

“We initially went to Manor Farm on the day it reopened...”

★★★★☆

written by on 02/08/2010

We initially went to Manor Farm on the day it reopened two years ago thought it would be interesting to see what had changed since then.

The wallaby walk through is great, our 9 year old daughter loved being able to stroke them, and the lemur walk through was also excellent.

We didn't see all the animals - didn't spot the tapirs (but it was a bit rainy and I don't know if they were just hiding away in their shelter), however the majority of the others were there, all looking very happy.

My husband was mostly interested in the wooden dragon sculpture being erected just outside the cafe; we'd be interested to see it once it's completed.

The food in the cafe is a little bit expensive but all local and very tasty, and we found the coffee quite strong but there was plenty of choice.

My only criticism is that I could hardly find any rubbish bins in the eating areas, plus out the back of the cafe I could find only a rubbish bin that stated it was for plastics and other rubbish, and no recycling bin for our paper cups and sandwich wrappers, so we had no choice but to put them in the general rubbish bin.

We'll be interested to go back again in a couple of years to see how it's changed.

“Don't go if you expect a theme park with rides!! ”

★★★★★

written by on 01/08/2010

Don't go if you expect a theme park with rides!!
Manor House Wildlife Park is centred on animals and conservation. We took our 2 grandsons(aged4&3)and were there all day! The animal walkthroughs are brilliant and the natural play areas are ideal. Good locally sourced food,plentiful portions and reasonably priced. also plenty of picnic spaces.Not as 'commercial' as Folly Farm, with a good range of well thought out gifts in shop. A very relaxed and laid back day.
It hasn't been going that long and the 'Africa' area was out of bounds, with the older section of the park still needing lots of tlc.
If you like the ethos of the Eden Project, then this is for you. It's going to grow gradually and sustainably without a massive impact on the environment.
We'll definitely return and recommend it to others.

★★☆☆☆

written by lodekka on 27/07/2010

Visited Manor House mid July. The 'star' Gibbons were locked in their house because workmen were fitting drainage pipes in the compound. No sign of the Marmosets, the Rhino shelter doesn't house any Rhino's, but that isn't clearly stated anywhere. The Flamingos are on the map but not there in reality. On the plus side the Lemur and Wallaby walkthrough sections were good but overall disappointed. Perhaps the place will improve in time and I wish them well but after 2 hours there was nothing left to see, certainly not as good as the TV servies implied.

★★★☆☆

written by on 04/07/2010

having been to manor house as a child and taking my daughter as a child we decided to take our grandson how manor house has changed it was lovely to see steve and lisa, and my grandson loved the walabys that was a real treat to get up so close and be able to touch them, but was very disappointed that there were no zebras or rhinos to be seen and it wasnt for the want of looking also would be nice if set times could be set for feeding and this advertised as if some of the animals are in there houses you are unable to see them, also a pets corner would be nice for the younger children, i really like what anna is doing by having the animals in there own type of enviroment but we had seen everything and had lunch and played in the minis on the lawn in under 2 hours, but can see that there is alot in progress and look forward to hopefully taking my great grandchildren too!

★☆☆☆☆

written by on 17/06/2010

Wished i never bothered. Overpriced, never saw more half the animals, place looking liked it needed a good clean. Really warm day but the kiosk by the zebras was closed just when we needed a drink. Qverall a shocking experience and would close the place down until it gets it act together. If you read this do not go.

“A brilliant day out. My Wife and our two kids aged 10...”

★★★★★

written by PHILEVANS on 15/06/2010

A brilliant day out. My Wife and our two kids aged 10 and 8 thoroughly enjoyed ourselves. Walking amongst the Wallabies was a treat, my 8 year old was in heaven stroking the Albino(White) one. We had a great picnic on the lawn in front of the Manor. In the afternoon we walked around the grounds in the beautiful sunshine, and the children spent over an hour in the Haybarn, jumping around and crawling through the bales. All in all a wonderful day out. The prices were good and we had voucher for £1 off entry per person so we saved 4 quid. BRILLIANT!!!
