Drusillas Park
Latest Reviews
I wouldn't actually reccomend this personally as I thought it was a bit run down , neglected, poor selection of animals and basic fairground rides at a premium price of £100 for a family of 4. My main bug bare was after charging this hefty admission fee they then charge you extra to go on the 3 only good attractions Rock climbing , Death slide (penguin drop) and Panning for gold and to be honest I felt that was criminal and you dont really have a choice once your kids are looking at all the other children enjoying it. To be honest I am not a fan of Zoo's and especially not smaller ones with no impressive animals (lions, elephants Rhino and big monkeys / apes etc) But my Kids said it was the best day out they had had for a while and genuinely enjoyed it.
This could be made a much better experience if they cleaned up the Park and dropped additional charges (they make enough) The picknick area around the Penguin drop and rock climbing was very run down all the wood work was past its best the picnick tables worn and fencing looking shabby etc the penguin drop itself was covered in green algae / moss and not really acceptable condition given the media coverage last year regarding injurys / issues regarding bouncy castle / inflatable hire standards.

Lovely zoo, with happy and well looked after animals. It is starting to look a little worn around the edges in some areas and could do with a lick of paint.

There's a lot here, packed into a small site. The animals are the highlight. But there's also a waterpark, some small rides and a play area. Probably best with young children. I went with some teens and pre-teens though, and they also enjoyed it.

We had a fantastic day at drusillas today (may bank holiday 2019). The zoo is fantastic, and all the animals and enclosures are very well looked after and all look well, healthy and very happy. My self and partner both agreed it is with out doubt the cleanest and well kept zoo we have seen and even though it is over an hour away from us we were so glad we choose to pay a visit and was well worth the journey. The rides and park itself were extremely well looked after and our Little one loved all the rides and found them really entertaining, but I would defiantly say it's probably not the best park for older kids as the rides are designed for children to a certain age (12), all staff that we met were all very polite, helpful and friendly, and the food stalls reasonably priced. I would definitely recommend this as a must see if your ever in the area, and don't think you will be disappointed, especially families with younger children.
Thanks drusillas for such a fantastic day! 👍

Recently went to Drusillas and had a really lovely day out with a 5 and 3 year old. Plenty to do and lots of information about all the different animals. Mine loved finding the animals and stamping their books as they went round. Rides were all great and despite being a busy day didn’t queue more then 5min each ride plus they were all suitable for both my boys to go on. We are in the restaurant and found the food to be very nice and good value for money. The play park is good but quite big so was a bit of a struggle keeping a eye on both of mine once they ran off in different direction s! We spent all day in the park and found all of the staff to be friendly and helpful. Will definitely be back again soon.

Super nice experience, guide was sweet and zoo is pretty big. As a part of the trip you can meet animals and feed them.

I love zoos, not many big animals but lots of lovely little ones that you can get really close to and some will even sit on your head!

I’ve lost count how many years I’ve been coming here our children and now granchildren so much progress over these years .Easter Monday we arrive smiles and helpfulness with the member off staff making us aware they now have introduced a new accessability system for visitors who are compromised on mobility meaning limited mobility and wheelchair users don’t have too que rides as we went round much has been done in 12 months wow well done Drusillas the thought and foresight on the new additions are indeed praiseworthy who wouldn’t love that beautiful carousel with the ability for wheelchair users too go on fantastic inclusive too all. The animals are so well cared for and great too note the thatched cottage restaurant is still doing home cooked food at a reasonable cost we had a fantastic day and I think you all deserve a pat on the back for a fabulous family day out big thanks

I am a coach driver and I took a school here last week I went in myself as we get very well looked after here :) I have never ever been here before and I must say it is fantastic!! The enclosures the animals live in are just amazing and so clean you can really see the love and care here at this zoo! It is very clean all the way around no litter and well kept grounds. The animal feeding shows are great and give lots of information and facts about the animal the walk through lemurs walk and the lory walk is fantastic you can purchase a pot of nectar for £1 and feed them and have them all over you which is fun and fab! It is a fab place for the kids and I would return here again out of work mode with my partner for a day out! The food was great generous portions all in all I only have great things to say about this zoo :))keep up the fab work!

Went here yesterday with my husband and 2 year old son and we had a fantastic day! We arrived at 11 am and didn’t leave to almost 6pm! The park was not very busy which was great! The animals all looked happy and well looked after and our son loved the amazing out door play areas and the soft play, he also enjoyed the rides and the splash park area. This is a fantastic day out for young families and is one of the best days out we have had as a family for a while! All staff were friendly and the food was hot and nice from the cafe- plenty of choice including salad bar, sandwiches, chips etc. The gift shop had some reasonably priced cuddly toys and our son picked a monkey! We will def be back!
