This is a great place to visit with your family a day out for all. They have an insight cafe which I haven't eaten at. Not the cheapest place to eat a coffee costs £3. But the range is animals is superb. Play areas for the children you can even bring your own picnic. Get up close to the lemurs in the walk in enclosure.

Brilliant school trip with one of my children, great rainforest session in the classroom and almost all the animals were out to play

Better since it was turned into the Mangrove. Much cleaner and nicer atmosphere. Shortened menu. Plenty of tables and good highchairs. Kids meals are good value at only £3.50 for a 1/2 sandwich, juice, yoghurt and crisps. Overall great, it's just a pity you can't visit the cafe without having to pay to enter the park. Nachos were tasty, a little small tho.

Brilliant place, great choice of animals all set in beautiful surroundings. Lovely cafe and plenty of rest areas to bring your own picnic, it even has a small ride on train. Very interesting and informative, especially about the local land/wetlands. Great value for money, highly recommended
