    Advantages Advantages Lots of great animals and opportunities to feed them

    Disadvantages Disadvantages The tiger talk was a bit heavy to listen too

    South Lakes Wild Animal Park is situated in Cumbria and was somewhere we had be recommended to visit on a recent trip to the lakes and it was certainly worth the visit and exceed our expectations of a zoo trip. Getting there ************* The Animal Park is situated at the southern tip of the Lake District in the North West of England on the A590 trunk road.

We had done a route map with the AA and this in combination with the brown signs got us there with no problems ... more

    Advantages Advantages A great day out

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Really need a car to get to it and parking can be a problem

    An amazing day out in the lakes During the Easter holiday I took my kids to the Lake District for a few days and while we weren’t blessed with gorgeous weather we did have a lovely time. One of their favourite things we did during our trip was to visit South Lakes Wild Animal Park. South Lakes Wild Animal Park is the only open zoo in Cumbria and it was my first experience of visiting an open zoo but hopefully it will not be my last. Getting there was relatively easy by car. We were based just outside Lake Windermere and the park was located in Dalton in Furness which was about a 20 minute ... more
