Firstly, pick up your animal food on arrival!

Check out our map and wander the park to see, pet and feed a range of animals in their fields

Take note of our scheduled, guided, interactive events

and drop in on them throughout the day – perhaps a meerkat feed, wallaby encounter and small animal petting

      These two activities run early Spring to late Autumn at weekends and each day during school holidays

Book now

Book your tickets ahead on our booking page or simply come along on the day to purchase them on the door!

Please note however, our special offers of Parent & Toddler Deal and Senior Citizen Meal Deal are only available to buy on the door (available Monday-Friday, term time only).

If you have children with you, use different play areas available and if it's a weekend or school holiday, perhaps give them an introduction to riding with a short pony ride!
