Zoo in Leeds

“Very interesting look around some of the Leeds museums artifacts in storage. Guide was full of information and enthusiasm which made it all the more enjoyable. May try and book some time in the future to look at some of the items in a bit more detail”

“We booked Joe and Jet the unicorn for my daughters 7th birthday, they were both absolutely great! All the children absolutely loved grooming jet and it visit really made the party special! Thank you again!”

“Awesome company with really nice owners, highly recommend them as a supplier for your sports team!”

“Wow oh wow, what a fabulous experience. Brilliant from start to finish. Can't thank you enough for making our day one of the best for myself and grandaughter. The lovely gentleman leading our walk was just so lovely, putting us all at ease and answering all our questions. Would definitely recommend”

“We all had a fab time today walking the alpacas with the llamas and of course Lambo too. We will definitely come back again.”

“What an absolutely amazing day we have both had today! We did the VIP experience day. Rhiannon was just excellent and really knew her stuff. Our favourite quote if the day was 'the brains arent bad, the eyeballs are worse, they stain' which made us laugh! We were able to handle 14 birds during our visit and fly we think 10 of those - one on a short hawk walk which was just a great experience. We were also introduced to a lot of the other birds in their aviaries perches. We genuinely couldn't choose a favourite but Willow was amazing, Tonto was adorable and friendly, Ivan was so majestic, Julianne such a great character, Peter was lovely, Twighlight a good showgirl and of course Arlo was such a show stopper! The surroundings are stunning. We cannot recommend SMJ enough. 5 stars not enough!”

“It’s so nice to be able to go to a sanctuary which is clean and has everything you need. The tour at 11:15 was heart wrenching but has totally opened my mind up. The lady who does the tour is probably one of the most inspirational mothers I’ve come across. We will definitely be coming back in the future. Lots of love to Minnie!”

“Lovely day out lots to see and do. Kids enjoyed it. Paths suitable for wheelchairs and prams. Clean toilets, well priced cafe and gift shop.”

“Beautiful location walk, ride or just sit and enjoy a coffee looking at nature. Fabulous place for wildlife photography if you are around Leeds.”

“Lovely park! The council and local groups do a great job of maintaining the park. Parking can be an issue when busy, but there are a plethora of transport options other than by car. Just be thoughtful to local residents and park considerately. Along with my visit to the park, I attended the Monet Gardens which were a pleasant surprise. You don't often find such a great addition to a council park. LCC have done a wonderful job with the reconstruction of their Chelsea Flower Show contributions. I think the park offers everyone a great day out. You will never be bored when visiting here, there is an abundance of history located all over the park and events are regularly held across the year.”

“Always took our cavalier king charles spaniel to Collette, sadly we had to let him go to sleep in 2017. Now we have a sproodle, and he has been today to Shirt Bark & Sides, and again Collette has done a fantastic job. I really recommend them. They know how to handle dogs.....I will never go anywhere else”

“Great place for a family day out and the ticket price is so reasonable. My nephew (7) loved it! Plenty of animals to see and a great play park. As with any thing animal related some animals were asleep or hiding which was a bit disappointing although no one can be blamed for that. Animals need private space too. We went as my nephew wanted to see animals but not a farm. This place had a great mixture of farm animals and the more exotic. Had a great time hunting beetle statutes and looking at everything. For the price this place is great and the staff were lovely. Only thing that let's it down slightly is the grubby looking fish tanks. They are clean but the plastic is damaged giving a not so great first impression, although we did spot a sign saying that they are working on this so once it's done this place will truly be perfect. Definitely recommend at visit.”

“absolutely amazing. The children loved it kept them entertained all day. They loved the beach, bouncy pillows, animals and the play parks. Will definitely go again.”

“This place made me think of the York Museum, which is one of my favourite museums in the UK. Loved every second I spent here and I will definitely recommend it to anyone that enjoys a walk through history.”

“We loved the Parsonage! Steeped in Bronte history, such an intimate house where you could picture the family living. So much interesting information too. Highly recommend!”

“20 of us have just had our Christmas Doo here at The Poole Bridge Cafe, under new management, Ian and family. And what a fantastic venue and food! Their full English the following morning? Bingo !another stunning performance. Ian allowed us to stay over in our motorhome too but only with prior permission, Everything is stamped Quality.”

“We took our 2 year old here to see the animals she loved it just right size to keep her attention for the age. Great fun feeding the animals would recommend for a few hours out”

“Superb Robert Adam interior, Chippendale furniture and art collections in magnificent country house. Also worth visiting the medieval church with fine alabaster monuments, and medieval castle ruins. Lake and gardens to view too, cafes in stables courtyard and basement of the house. A great day out!”

“A great place to spend a morning or afternoon. Free parking and lots of walks and trails to enjoy. Staff were really friendly and enthusiastic, and (shoutout to Elizabeth!) gave us a basic run down of the history of the house and the story of Bagshaw on arrival which was a lovely touch! Three rooms to explore downstairs and three rooms upstairs, my favourite being the Eygpt room! Entry is free, and gift shop is reasonably priced.”

“Fabulous place, friendly staff, happy animals. Stayed at the lodge and have booked to go back. Littleborough has to be the friendliest town ever.”

“Great place for walking the dog, only one downside since the council also allowed cyclists it can be a little dangerous as few of them slow down”

“Stunning afternoon out. Beautiful setting for some wonderful shots of the sunset and garden. Really enjoyed walking around zoo and seeing all the wonderful selection of birds. Great service and food in the cafe”

“We come here every Easter and it's so much fun lots of lambs to pet and other animals to enjoy was a little spoiled this year as everyone decided to park their cars on the top field where everyone wants to have a picnic so instead of letting the child off her leash to run around we couldn't as she was dodging cars it was strange as no one has parked on that field in previous years”

“A really good place to visit its fully wheelchair accessible. In the butterfly House you are travelling on a wooden slat bridge but we were OK even with a manual wheelchair. So what animals, snakes, spiders insects, fish, birds I loved seeing the Ray as well as the amazon fish. So many colours. Did I mention reptiles, no well they even have a crocodile lizards and a day gecko. If you want a souvenir they have a huge shop full and a large cafe the cakes and coffee were yummy. Toilets are in the shop and cafe. Again full accessibility. We had a lovely day.”

“Lots of spooky fun for Halloween. There is so much to do here. Explore the house, play in the park, look at the birds, explore the grounds.. There are toilets and a cafe. I would suggest taking a picnic as the cafe queue does get very long!”

“Really good day out, especially for the kids. We got to feed the lambs and the calves. Massive range of animals and lovley play areas. Would definitely recommend for little children. Staff were lovely too :)”

“Walks, play ground, adventure play ground, large animal area, stately home and cafe with ice cream van. Easy way to occupy a family for several hours.”

“Great afternoon on the farm. The staff were really nice and my Son loved feeding the animals and the play area. Will deffinately visit again.”

“Had a lovely walk through here whilst travelling through the town. What a beautiful spot...particularly the flower garden. So many plants and really well cared for. Well worth a visit.”
