About the site
A great spot to combine relaxation with family fun. You can spend days meeting the animals and evenings unwinding in the outdoors. You can also make the most of the park facilities, with a fishing pond (extra cost), soft play, tractor rides, play area and even a cafe serving a delicious breakfast and lunch menu. There are just two bell tents onsite, each sleeping up to four in a double and two single beds. The tents are set up with cosy carpeting and rugs covering the floor to keep you all warm, and they are handily kitted out with bedside tables, blankets and electric points as well as central lamps and fairy lights. Comfy beds, linens and throws are also provided, as well as bean bags and cushions. Every tent has a mini-cooking corner with utensils and crockery, teas and coffees and a plastic butt for easy water transportation. Outside is a seating area and tables built around a fire pit/BBQ for that authentic camping experience. Included is the first basket of logs, and each tent has its own private parking spot and fenced-off garden with a compact decked area. Perfect for unwinding without worrying about the little ones. Basic entry to the animal park is included in your stay, and there are encounters with lemurs, Highland cattle, kookaburras, tortoises and capybara (among many others) to book… and not forgetting the park's star attractions - the handsome hybrid wolf/dogs. Sorry, dogs are not allowed.
Glamping is available for weekends from April to July and then from 1st August to the 1st September.
