Tips

An amazing day out, plenty to see and do! For kids and adults! Defiantly worth the visit.

Fantastic zoo; one of the best in the country.

If you love animals, get a family card. It's a little over £90 for a couple for a year (small children are free). This gives you entrance to the zoo, Newquay zoo and Torquay Living Coast. We worked out that your 4th visit is free with the year pass.

A must have for our family. The facilities are great and we all love it.

Amazing

Great day out for kids and adults :)

Great fun children warn out suitably

We visited here whilst on holiday, there was lots to see and do. We ate in the cafe and although a bit pricey we enjoyed our meal.

Great day out, got some fantastic close up photos and the animals look very healthy and happy. Well worth the money for a full day out.

Fantastic day out, all the animals have quite a bit of space and look happy and healthy. We wanted an ice cream but found many of the kiosks closed. Lots to do and see great for all ages although it's quite hilly.
