Arrived at 11 am parking was easy and was guided into a space by a worker. Had to que for about 15 mins. Which wasn't to bad. We walked around the zoo bit twice the second time was a bit quieter so we could look with out being rushed through by other people. We then went onto the restaurant explorers which was quite expensive for three meals the child's portions are tiny and over priced. Then the real fun for my 8 year old started first the new hippie and cat rides then onto hello kitty world rides before going into the maze, then onto the climbing frames we came away tired and my daughter didn't want to leave but we had been there all day so she was happy enough to leave 😊

We are fortunate to live close to this place so we have a pass and go a lot. Our daughter loves it. There is so much to do, the zoo, a huge park/adventure playground a splash area and indoor soft play. There are also a few rides which are controlled well so you're not queuing for ages. Brilliant day out.

What an amazing place that Is!
Beyond expectation! Very clean, with friendly polite staff. A lot of attractions for everyone, animals, water park, hello kitty etc. Plenty of space to chill out, even when it's busy, it doesn't feel like over crowded. Will be back soon 👌

We took our five year old grandson here on Saturday as part of his birthday present and neither he or us were disappointed. Parking was easy and even though we arrived at opening time (10 am) didn't have to queue. All the animals and their enclosures were clean and well looked after and the zoo is laid out really well.Plenty of things for the children to do in the play parks and rides to go on. Food facilities were also good, we went to the restaurant and Grandson had the food bag which was really good, we had the fish and chips and again very good. Plus the lovely Cornish Kelly's ice cream.The maze was great fun. We spent all day their and found plenty of things to keep us entertained and all the staff we came into contact with were very helpful and polite. Cant wait for the return trip.

Had an excellent time at drusillas I have a toddler so was dreading the queues but even though it was summer holidays the queue was quick to get get in and the rides were also surprisingly.the staff were all lovely and helpful and made the day an enjoyable one lots to do and my toddler absolutely loved it only thing I would say is that possibly kids under 3 not 2 should be free as after 4 hours we had to leave as he was getting tired and irritable

The park is very well looked after and the queues not too long. The kids loved it. It was good value. The animals were also pretty active and the areas with interaction were great. It is designed for young kids so if you have kids over 8 or 9 they would probably be too old to enjoy it. As a tip I would recommend getting there early and starting with the rides, then go back to the animals to avoid the queues. Overall very good.

Had a great day with grandchildren at Drusilas. Lots of things for children to see and do. They had a great time seeing the animals and on the rides. All facilities were well maintained and clean. Staff were friendly and helpful, First visit but can see us returning.

A big place for everyone who enjoys animals but also very entertaining for children as they have Hello Kitty rides and jungle rides too.

Yesterday we all went to Brighton where we were ripped off for food and attractions (see review Brighton pier) today we went to Drusillas what a contrast. At first a did think we were getting ripped off again with the entrance fee for all of us but as we went around you could see that a lot of effort is going into the whole place. there are lots of things to see and explore and all the facts about animals kept all of us adults and children enthralled so much so we took nearly 3 hours just to get around the animal park. Even through it was the high season we managed to get a table and the food and drinks were fairly priced and tasty even the doughnuts and ice creams were very reasonably priced. I see other reviews complain about paying extra for some rides I don't believe this is an issue the ticket price includes loads of things to do and for us we could not have found time for the rides. The playground was enormous fun for all the grandchildren ages from 2-11 and we had a good 3 hours and we still had tears when it was time to leave. We did visit the maze on the way out which again a lot of thought and effort had gone into it. The ease of parking and the staff good manners were a bonus. we will return.

An amazing day out for all the family. A spotless park and fantastic family day out. Bieng an animal enthusiast myself, I did spot some enclosures that were a tad bit too small to house the amount of animals they had in them. Overall, a brilliant day out

Very clean, could do with more staff walking around, also in the Hello Kitty Face painting Hut. New Water attraction, great hit.

I visit the drusillas quite a lot with my family and we love coming here. I think that the park is very clean and tidy, staff are really friendly, nice play area and water park which is safe for the kids, rides are really good. We usually come late afternoon/early evening before park closes, so it's not too busy around these times. Drusillas is a really good family day out :-)

Took my granddaughters aged 3 & 5 and thoroughly enjoyed our day out. This is perfect for younger children as the park is not too large. There are enough animals to see and the various themed play areas are excellent. We managed to get on all the rides with minimal queues and enjoyed the water splash area as the weather was perfect. We took a packed lunch as the food on offer is the usual fast food. The staff on all the rides were very polite. The park is spotlessly clean too. I think older children might be a bit bored as the rides they do have are a little tame but would say perfect for under 10's.

Really good place for kids, both ours have Autism but really enjoyed it, its quite expensive to get in and then you have to pay extra for some things which is what lets it down.

Not cheap, but lots to do and go on for the price, but was a tad disappointed that the inflatable slides and sand pit where all pay to use, sort it out guys, this should be free! Would have given a 5 rating is this hadn't left me feeling ripped off. Parking? Plenty! Prams and wheelchairs? Very friendly. Toilets and cafes? Everywhere. Wet play? Yep, bring a towel and swimming Cossy! Play areas? Huge ones! Children's fun rides? Fair few aimed at younger kids. Lots of animals and interaction opportunities? Tick that box too. Fancy a train ride? Got that also! Couldn't be faulted in that respect, kids loved it and that's why it's all about, but I wouldn't imagine that teenagers would enjoy it as much as the smaller kids. Great day out and worth the hole in my wallet and the staff we met were all very polite and seemed to enjoy their roles and responsibilities.

I visited with my two sons aged 2yrs and 4yrs on a very busy day. We are card holders so visit throughout the year whatever the weather. This day was the busiest I'd ever seen it, but the team in all areas were so friendly and calm it made our trip even more relaxed. They could have easily been stressed, and maybe even were but we were none the wiser. We love Drusilla's, and with that awesome team, we will for years to come. If you haven't been before, go, there really is loads to do. My favourite will always be the animals, especially Oli, she's a beauty! Thanks again, Emma, Oliver and our (can be) feral boys 😉

Visited for our daughter 3rd birthday,
Had to pay full price which was £57 for family of 3( not able to get any discounts as muddy stilettos emailhad to be printed ... and kids pass only allowed paper tickets which needed to be printed & I didn't allowe enough time...
Anyway, I expected an amazing experience as heard great things and adverts always looked so amazing- how misleading they are.
All animals are behind the glass- well apart from pig, sheep and cows, quite small and some quite far away from the glass, some are not even there.( like meerkats this time)
The playground bit- is ok but basically just one big playground. We liked the rides- that was the best part of it I guess.
Not impressed u had to
Pay £3 for some slides.
There was something missing, Atmosphere wasn't great, i think bit of music would help. There was just tiny bit of music on the safari train- jungle song, my daughter loved it and suddenly all train was enjoying it- but lasted maybe 20 seconds if not less.
I don't think we will be returning for this price, the zoo bit could be a lot better

What a fantastic day out for the whole family, took our two young children there for the day and the loved every moment of it!! We loved seeing them enjoy looking and learning about all the animals, even going a few rides as well. Would definitely take them back there again!

Visited in Aug 17- a lot of people in the park but we weren't really crowded. The zoo is nice but isn't hugely different to how it's been for the last several years. Lots of animals, some touchable, some not. The farm animals were an attraction to a five year old as they patiently put up with pats and strokes. The train was fun, and we rode it twice. The food (fast food) in Oasis was OK- not overpriced, and we could sit outside and eat it on a warm day. The Go Bananas area was fine for the said 5 year old. Shame we'd not thought to bring swimming stuff, as the get wet area looked great.
