Love Marwell. Great day out. Food can be expensive though. They've recently added some lovely play areas.

My daughters and I have been annual pass holders for 4 years now and love all that the Zoo has to offer. There is only one complaint I have - parking facilities; I feel that could be improved, but otherwise love spending days out here, come rain or shine.

A fun day out in all weathers! my children love the animals, there are also 3 lovely play areas. We always take a picnic as there are inside and outside picnic ares, however there is a large choice of places to get food and ice creams, You can easily spend a whole day here.
