Absolutely fantastic Day
Absolutely fantastic day with our daughter in law grandson and granddaughter. Lovely place to visit staff are all so friendly.
We had lunch at the cafe food was lovely staff so kind but did feel really sorry for them as people kept complaining about being kept waiting for food , they did explain the was a wait which you could see the would be they desperately need more staff as 2 on the front and what looked like one man in the kitchen just isn’t enough, all the time people were complaining the ladies just kept apologising as it just couldn’t be helped really felt sorry for them.

I have visited the Exotic Zoo a few…
I have visited the Exotic Zoo a few times and will definitely make it a regular thing now, it’s a unique experience as you can get quite hands on with some of the Gorgeous animals such as Tilly the Skunk and Cali the Meerkat aswel as snakes and frogs, every single member of staff and volunteers are so friendly and knowledgeable and Scott is an absolutely amazing gifted person and extremely friendly and experienced and was absolutely wonderful with my Severely Autistic Son, he even managed to get my Son to touch a snake which is a miracle! I truly can’t speak highly enough of Scott, his team and the wonderful Zoo, Thankyou for so many incredible experiences and we will definitely see you again very soon :)
