Even though the wind was gusty, the animals were all still out and happy. It’s a lovely little zoo, with interactive keeper sessions about the animals and just there for guest to interact with them also. All the animals were out and about and some were more interactive then others, I was able to call over the tapir and get some great photos! Nice safe paced zoo which is mainly flat so easily accessible and lots of room for everyone to see the animals in their environments. Plenty of food vending about and also eatery. I would say this is more of a summer place as various exhibits were closed but normal for the time of the year.

It was an enjoyable time and we were able to see animals we haven't seen before at other Zoos. We went at the end of the season and on a week day so some things weren't open, but I'm sure it is even more fun when everything is 100% open. Would recommend!

The zoo was a wonderful experience - there were lots of animals that my boyfriend and I had never seen before even in other zoos. It was large and there was a variety of exhibits. Very worth the price as you can stay as long as you want (from opening to close)!
