Problem with booking online on Saturday. Went early today to check we were actually booked on a tour. The guy on reception didn't seem that approachable/friendly but we secured tickets for an earlier tour. A sign pointed us to the shop to start our tour: the person at the shop was quite impatient and aggressive, marched off to take the sign down and ordered everyone to go somewhere else to start the tour Bearing in mind this is all they do and it's a way through tourist season how can they not have a system going where all employees know what is going on? They were all about 60 yards from each other! Bit of a shambles. Restaurant very overpriced Tour itself was very interesting but spoiled by a small group of 'class clowns'. The drinks and food sampled are excellent. Better staff needed to make it a thoroughly enjoyable experience; it felt a bit like we were all an inconvenience

We had a lovely day at this zoo! Really cute little zoo, small so will only take you about 3-4hours to properly look around it. Would have been nice to see some lions or tigers. They were doing a lot of building work of new enclosures or something?

Well worth a visit, this is a well run Zoo and conservation program. Easy to reach via the local bus service, you also get a look round the island. Highly recommended.

Ohne Führung kann man das Café und den Shop auch kostenlos besuchen und man bekommt einen kleinen aber schönen Überblick über die Anlage. Kleines Weinanbaugebiet. Führung zu teuer. Um Shop zahlreiche Mitbringsel von der Insel.

A beautiful place to enjoy lunch or afternoon tea, sitting right by the vines. The venue is let down, however, by the quality of the winery tour. Although we were able to sample a lot of drinks, the guide had very limited knowledge of wine and spirits production and even had to read the back labels of the wine bottles to say which grapes were used and what the tasting notes were. The tasting doesn't include the sparkling wines, which was a disappointment too. £15.95 is a lot for what was basically a glorified tasting, although it does at least allow you to see the beautiful farmhouse and garden at the end of the tour. Don't let that put you off the restaurant, however - the setting and the food are excellent. All in all, 5 stars for the restaurant and 2 for the tour.

All the animals were able to be seen and the map you get at the zoo is good to show proper route so you don't miss anything.
