There is a gift shop in which there are many toys and gifts for all ages. We also have a cafe, which serves a wide range of sandwiches, hot food (such as burgers, chips, bacon rolls, hot dogs etc.) and hot or cold drinks. There is also covered shelter, poly tunnel and picnic benches for dining outside. The hatchery is where you can watch the chick eggs hatching and handle rabbits, chicks, snakes and try to get the parrots to talk! You can feed the animals too. Why not try out our new maze?
