Very nice place for families with kids. Not the biggest place, however fun. The dinosaur section is pretty amazing.

Visited as was given a red letter day ‘meet the meerkats’ experience and this was the location. Had never heard of this zoo before even though we only live about 20 miles away. The location is lovely right in the middle of a wood. Nice big car park at no extra charge. We went to the experience centre and was greeted by a member of staff who offered us a drink and gave us a goody bag before the zoo keeper arrived to take us on the experience. We walked through the park and I was most impressed by how clean and spacious it was. It is very well maintained and once we got to the meerkat enclosure the experience began. Food was put out for them and they climbed all over us and enjoyed a good cuddle. The keeper was very informative and took photos for us. It lasted about 30 minutes and we really enjoyed it. Afterwards we walked around the rest of the zoo and although it is quite small it is perfectly formed if you have children they would enjoy it as there’s lots for them to see and do. It was a great day out and we thoroughly enjoyed it.

Travelled a couple of hours to visit the park - well worth the effort. So much for the kids to do. Saw loads of amazing animals, had a lovely lunch, didn’t go into the indoor soft play as it was such a beautiful day but played in the park and went into the paddling pool too. The new Dinosaur Park was brilliant - very realistic! Children had a fabulous day and we could have spent a couple of days here! Will definitely be back in the summer holidays! Thank you Paradise x

Great family fun day out for all ages big kids and little ones alike! Staff are all friendly and facilities look all clean and money appears to be all spent on caring for the animals.

A brilliant place for kid and adults. The new dinosaur attraction is like being in DISNEYLAND! I cannot recommend this place highly enough. The animals all look super healthy and well cared for. I am looking forward to a return visit.

Expensive to get in and you need to pay for things on top of that, like the train ride. But a great day out for families. I took my 4 year old to see the dinosaurs for his birthday. Plenty to keep children entertained. Food not great and also expensive, I would recommend packing a lunch.

Good mix of animals here. Large cats like lions and tigers to little meerkats. £22 for an adult ticket and £19 for a child, can get expensive for a family day out but worth a visit at least once.

This was the first time we have visited and we arrived a few hours early so we could explorer before the Junior Zookeeper Experience which was booked for 1400.
The new 'World of Dinosaurs' is really good, only been open a few weeks and modeled on Jurassic Park with a Jeep you can sit in that is being chased by a roaring T-Rex.
Another thing we really liked was how close to the animals we could get, an added bonus was the Speedway Museum - we had no idea it was here and we spent a good amount of time in here - free entry once you're in the park.
The Junior Zookeeper Experience was a bit disappointing, it was a 2 hour event and our 10 year old daughter was really looking forward to it, the first hour was basically a wander around the public area of the park and being told a few facts of the deer, foxes etc and some sweeping of a bit of concrete outside a deer hut that didn't need sweeping, we also put some hay in the deer shed.
The second hour was a bit better, we got inside the Meerkats enclosure to feed them and they climbed all over my daughter which she loved, we then went to a reptile hut where we were shown a snake and a few other interesting things, then we fed some giant tortoises and that was the end of our event.
All 3 of us got some goody bags, these bags contained an experience certificate, pen, a fridge magnet and loads of promo leaflets.
In summary, it's a great park but the zoo keeper experience was expensive for what we got, we could have easily done the interesting bits in half the time for half the cost and cut out the not so interesting bits.

We went for my daughter's 8th birthday, primarily as she loves snow leopards and had never seen one (shame they were asleep!). All the animal enclosures looked well kept and we were amazed at how close we could get to the big cats - within a couple of metres - and they are all stunningly beautiful creatures.
There are lots of other animals too and we especially enjoyed watching the penguins and otters play. The staff we spoke to were friendly, knowledgeable and helpful. There were lots of keeper talks and feeding activities going on, so well worth the money for a day out
The new dinosaur world is definitely worth a visit, the models are superb and when the plants and trees grow around them it will be even better.
There's also a big play area and lots of stuff to climb on for smaller children to keep them entertained.
Our only disappointment were the food outlets (the usual park / attraction problems of overpriced average junk) so next time we'll bring a picnic.

Great park so much to do but considering £20 each to get in..even for my 2 year old I was annoyed in having to pay extra for the train ride.

Kids loved it. Very knowledgeable staff. Clean and tidy

The new dinosaur park is amazing and well worth a visit. Visitor numbers were low, perhaps due to the almost doubling of the after school admission prices?

We celebrated our grandsons 3rd birthday here and had a wonderful day. Everyone had a great day. We took our own picnic and there were plenty of tables to cater for us. The grandchildren loved the dinosaurs, a lot of money and labour has been put in to make a great impact on all ages. A great family day out.
