What a little hidden gem . Easy to get too a big car park and if you have a child that loves reptiles or animals in general they are going to love this place the highlight of my 8 year olds day was getting to hold the giant snail 🐌 cockroach 🪳 turtle ... 🐍 Snake and the large stick looking insect he was fascinated this place is well worth a visit and very reasonably priced too with a lovely cafe and seating area glad I came across this place great experience today They also do school tours
Vicki
Nice little place with some unusual animals, the meerkats are brilliant and the babies are adorable. You can sit and watch them from outside the restaurant. The food from the restaurant is amazing. The reptile house is very nice with a variety of reptiles and insects from snakes to cockroaches and the reptile/bug encounter is great. It's a nice opportunity for children to interact with animals they wouldn't normally see. There's also a lovely little walk around the pet farm with a big playground. I would definitely recommend spending a few hours here with the kids.
Stephanie
Great little animal place that has quite a variety of animals. There's reptiles, birds and a few mammals. Some (or most??) of the animals are surrendered or rescue animals so they get top points for that. Some of the place is still under development, so that explains some of the areas looking a bit run down. The reptile house could use a bit more tlc, with some of the enclosures being empty or housing plastic plants, and some of them being quite small. Talks were very insightful, and Ben was very knowledgeable and patient with the crowd. Cafe and gift shop on site are reasonably priced. Overall, a fun and not too pricey family day out, especially with young children. More awareness should be made of this place as they are doing a great service taking care of these animals.
Pat
Great day out with the family here. Saw the meerkats being fed, the parrot talking, petting the small animals and the snake holding which they enjoyed. The guide was very knowledgeable and friendly. Lots to see so don't let the size put you off. There's a cool reptile area, goats, donkeys, emus, pigs, owls, cockatoos and lots more plus a playground and a decent cafe. The food and coffee is decent enough but the spice boxes are very salty so make sure you order a drink too! Toilets are clean and replenished, there's a gift shop too. All in all, spent a lovely few hours here and would certainly recommend for a nice family day out.
