We had such a lovely time here. There's something special about this place, as it's a rare attraction that isn't massively commercialised and trying to empty your wallet at every turn. Firstly, tickets are a lot less expensive than other zoos and wildlife parks, and are well worth the money. £13.50 for an adult. I'm sure people would be willing to pay more. The park is small and unassuming, but very well maintained. There is a large outdoor play area and a wheelchair accessible play area for disabled kids. There is also an indoor soft play area. The park is wheelchair accessible throughout and I didn't run into any accessibility issues at all. Obviously there were some high up viewing decks only accessible by stairs but this is expected. The toilets aren't exactly glamorous but they were clean and fit for purpose. There's a small cafe with a small selection of sandwiches, paninis, and vegan Hotdogs which was a pleasant surprise! Food was inexpensive, a large vegan Hotdog was £4.50. There were also several vegan ice creams in the ice cream freezer and a cold water fountain for refilling bottles. Now the important part, the animals! There is a reptile house, a nocturnal animal area including a free flying bats walk-through, a few big cats, birds of prey, rainforest animals, primates, and more. My personal favourites are armadillos, which we were so fortunate to see extremely up close as a friendly keeper was more than happy to show us and tell us all about them. The keepers were so friendly and passionate about what they do. There is some great conservation going on with their breeding programmes, and plans for animals to be introduced into the wild to repopulate. I had an 'Aardvark Experience' voucher gifted to me and this was so great! 30 minutes of one on one with a really enthusiastic and knowledgeable keeper, I believe their name was TK, bottle feeding and hand feeding the aardvarks and learning more about them. I can't recommend this enough, a really great experience but also a great way to contribute money to the zoo so that they can keep doing what they do!

This is the most lovely wildlife park! I bought the Capybara experience for my sister for Christmas and we only just found time to go. The day was a little overcast and at times, drizzly, but that didn’t dampen the experience. The park seems small (I’m more used to London Zoo), but there’s so much to see and do. We went during the week on a Wednesday and it was quiet. It was a rare day when I didn’t have my children with me, and I thoroughly enjoyed spending time reading the descriptions of the animals and chatting to the keepers. There’s talks throughout the day which I highly recommend going to. I really enjoyed the one for the tigers and lemurs. It makes it much more of an interesting experience especially as the keepers give you lots of little personal details about the animals. I learnt so much more about how breeding programmes run, and safety protocol, and how otters are cute but actually can’t be trusted with fingers 😂 - I’d never have gotten all that information from bigger, more impersonal zoos. My favourite animals were the otters who are just super cute, the aardvarks who are super weird looking in real life and the mother and daughter tigers who were absolutely stunning. What really stands out though is how well the animals are cared for. There’s a playground and indoor soft play for children which I’m sure my 7,5 and 1 year old would love. My sister did the capybara experience and had a brilliant time. She fed them bamboo and even got to stroke them. Such a wonderful day out, thank you!

I took my kids here during half term (February) and it wasn't to busy, was quite a nice day out for the kids, there were an a mix of animals, red pandas, Llamas, monkeys, tigers although the looked sad if I'm honest they was just pacing up and down, there insects and more, the bat walk is ok you can walk through while they fly freely about. My absolute favourite was the prairie dogs, they were hilarious bobbing up and dog and "talking" to each other. We ate in the restaurant as I didn't take food (I'd take a picnic) the food was reasonable price for these types of places £4 for a hot dog £2 for a coffee but we waited such along time (20-25 mins for the food, 4 hotdogs) There is a indoor play area which was busy and no where to sit so we didn't stay there, seating outside also outside play areas one is closed at the moment. There is an educationan center bit there was a nice lady called liz, who showed my children the i sand box, which was fascinating and fun and chatted away to myself and the children. They also coloured in some pictures. Overall it was a good day out, it wasn't as big as I had thought but we made a day of it.

We throughly enjoyed our time here. 3 children and 3 adults. Ticket prices were average. i’d say personally. Honestly you could spend as much or as little time as you like here. The animals are well cared for all enclosures were clean. If your a red panda fan, you will love watching them up a tree , roaming free! So much to do: education building, with sensory activities. animal talks which were fab, especially the otters! Inside soft play cafe outdoor park zip line diggers dinosaurs large picnic areas doted all over the place. so many beautiful animals to see, amazing tiger spotting walk way, above the enclosure. rabbit walk, with rabbits roaming freely. cute little gift shop. The only little niggle i found was the toilets by the soft play, located outside. Lots of bugs and spiders, along with a not so nice smell. Kids really didn’t want to go in there! Overall, we had amazing time, it was defiantly worth the visit. I would defiantly recommend.

Please please please support this amazing family run wildlife park. Their ethos on conservation is outstanding. The love and knowledge they have for their creatures is amazing and you will have the best day out. Every keeper who walks around, if you have a question and stop them to ask, will take the time to answer that question and will always ask if they can help with anything before they leave you to enjoy the rest of their animals. The VIP animal experiences are very worthwhile too, if you are debating doing one I highly recommend you do it. We did the aardvarks and I urge you to participate in hands on experience. Our keeper Liz was amazing and knew everything we wanted to know and so much more. Terry and his daughter are the kindest, sweetest people you could meet and are never too busy to help you or answer questions. I definitely recommend going here for an amazing day out with all the family. Thank you for our day out. X

Visited Shepreth Wildlife Park with my partner today and I'm pleased to say I highly recommend it! There's a large number of animals to see and it's the park is broken up into different areas in which animals reside habitually (Africa, Asia, etc.) It was great to see that all of the animals appeared happy and healthy enjoying a sunny day at the park. We didn't see some of the animals in their enclosures but were unsure of whether they may have been elsewhere in the park (Clouded Leopards & Aardvark). There's plenty for young children to do both indoors (soft play) and outdoors (play park), add the animals into the mix and you can easily make a day out of it. There is also a café where they serve both hot and cold food (the price is a little steep so it's worth bringing a packed lunch). The souvenir shop has a ton of good gifts to remember your trip by too so be sure to see what Shepreth Wildlife Park has to offer!
