Drusillas Park
Latest Reviews
It's OK and entertaining for the kids for a short while but is very limited and since the price raise over priced for what you get. But it keeps the kids quiet for a little while so for that I give it 4 stars

There wasn't many big animals more little ones the zoo is small and then the rest is play area which was heaving with families so we just left not safe for a young toddler to be able to play around. Very expensive for what we did.

BE WARNED ROAD WORKS ON A27 AT DRUSILLAS ROUNDABOUT TOOK US OVER AN HOUR TODAY !
Firstly this is an expensive day out costing well over £100 for a family of 4 .
Friendly staff , but felt over crowded in zoo ,with no COVID cleaning on rides .
Few places to sit today to have picnic all tables and benches full , 15 min wait to get a coffee not great .
Once your in some things you still have to pay for £5 for one go on inflatable slide !😱
Saying all that the kids had a great day , loved to play area and the free rides .

Lovely park, animal's look like they are cared for, great day out can become manic as lots of exciting little ones running about, even a little fun fair with rides for small children, food not to sure if you like fast food then fine, but recommend bring your own, gift shop some what expensive, lovely staff and very informative. Lots to see and learn.

It has been years since I had even and again Drusillas did not disappoint. New rides plenty of places to sit disabled friendly. The shops are amazing. And to top off we was lucky to see some of the new born animals. Although you can pay at gate try and book online before the day you go is a bit cheaper.

Took a 13yr 7yr and 3yr old was well worth the money the rides and zoo trail are excellent only thing I would say is that the cost of the slide and climbing wall is very steep especially with a few kids but overall very ps at the time of this review I would leave a little earlier as there is alot of traffic due to carriageway improvements right outside the road

I know there aren't any restrictions now, but thus was seriously over crowded & unsafe. The people running the park should have kept the numbers lower & altered the running times of things so people didn't bunch up so much. Like meal times & not running rides until 11. It was crazy bad & people should still have to wear masks in toilets & inside & queues. Also there was no cleaning of rides or anything in-between people using them. Felt very unsafe all day. Disappointed. Star rating is on how much fun we had at the park before covid. This time it was really 1 🌟

Absolutely brilliant day at drusillas for my 12 year old (and me). Got up close to lots of different animals, lost count a bit but at least 10 different species. Fed lots of different things and got to hold/stroke a good variety. The keeper with us all day was lovely and we had a fab lunch in the restaurant. Would highly recommend, compared to other animal encounters we have done it was excellent value for money

We haven’t been here for a few years so when we last visited it was more of a zoo with just a couple of rides.
I feel the zoo needs a little bit of TLC. The zoo route was very busy and at times I didn’t feel completely safe especially at the start as social distancing was non existent. I felt the place itself was overcrowded for covid times.
The play areas and rides were fantastic. Queues not too bad except for one.
The biggest disappointment was the food. Nowhere near as good as it used to be and now so much more expensive. (£19 for 2 jacket potatoes and 2 waters)
One bit of advice for the people who run the restaurant - if you could try and cater more for those with allergies or who are vegan as there was no vegan spread - only butter and so sandwiches were out as they had lol been pre done with real butter. Some of us also couldn’t have spread on our potatoes for the same reason. The allergy booklet could also do with updating as a couple of things were defiantly wrong.

Animal encounter . It was an amazing experience to get close and feed Coatis .
Our guide Peter was excellent and very knowledgeable . We could ask him anything .
Its interesting to see behind the scene of the everyday life of the zoo .

My son took part in the Keeper for The Day experience for his birthday. An absolutely brilliant day! Really well thought out, interesting and some surprises on the way. We got to get up close and feed a huge variety of animals and our keeper guiding us was so knowledgable and made the day very entertaining. A fantastic place enjoyed by all the family

Overall was okay. Zoo itself was great and our child loved the rides. Can be completed in just over half a day which was great. Food was like any other theme park/zoo, overpriced but actually fine to eat. Only gave the zoo 3 stars as got the feeling that some (not all) of the visitors didn’t appreciate an ethnic race family visiting. Some were damn right rude and tried to push us to the side. I guess if the park had more staff on the ground they could see this sort of blind racism happening.

A good out to captive animals that are well looked after. Rides are good for small children and adults.

I think this place is abit overpriced, for what it is. Also charging full price for kids makes this a very expensive day out. Our 8 year old Son enjoyed the Animals but the rides were aimed at younger children and he was bored.<br>We were in the park for about 3 hours which worked out at a little over £30 per hour.<br>The price definitely would put us off recommending this place to others.

Good day out

Brilliant for families with younger children. Lovely day out with zoo, adventure ay areas, rides and splash pad. Lockers are useful too. Queues not too long. Often no queues at the end of the day.

Expensive day out if not using clubcard vouchers but kids had a brilliant day (6, 8 and 9). More than enough to fill the day. Only downside were some activities at extra cost inside which is disappointing with such an expensive ticket price. Absolutely no wasps which was a nice surprise as most parks have loads!

Not a bad zoo, need bigger enclosures for some of the animals though.

This place is really good for small children with lots to see and do both in the zoo and the park. Food outlets are good but there is also a very nice picnic area.<br>Finaly unlike some of the bigger parks you don't get the hard sell for pictures and it does not have a gift shop at the end of every attraction.<br><br>A Great day out.
