Great accessibility options

This was the first place I visited as a disabled person, so I didn't know what to expect. But I had a great time and would definitely visit again! The only part with possibly limited access was the farm. When we went it had been raining, so some of the paths were really muddy and I'm not sure if a wheelchair user would be able to access.

A pleasant day with good access

We didn’t have time to go into the farm or aquarium so this is based on the central area. We spent an afternoon and had a hot meal in the restaurant followed by a gentle meander around key areas. Paths are mostly smooth hard surfaces with the odd tree root bumps and similar. Food was very good and it was a quiet afternoon with very few people - ideal for us. Viewing areas are mostly very good and information was also at a good height.
