Alongside animal talks, feeding stations and walk-through enclosures with lemurs and flamingos, you'll find an animatronic dinosaur zone, indoor and outdoor play areas, bug gardens, a natural history museum and an 18-hole mini golf course, making it well suited to family days out whatever the weather. The park is largely step-free with tarmac paths and accessible facilities.
