Twycross Zoo Reviews

Took advantage of the annual pass offer. With myself and my girlfriend having a baby who's under two, we didn't have to pay for zoo entry for him. We went for the premium passes. This allows you to park your car for five times for free (usually £3 a time), discounted prices on food and on merchandise and, also 50% off soft play (with a child's annual pass only). *You must activate your annual passes and confirm what time you intend on visiting the zoo, also you need to register your car registration before you visit* We visited on a rainy day, which wasn't too bad, because we had something to eat and our son went on the soft play, which is big and has plenty to do for kids of all ages. It's also secure too, with the staff taking that part of the job seriously. We waited for the rain to die down, before heading out to see some animals. Unfortunately most of them were taking shelter because of the rain. We did manage to see a few though. The best thing is that it didn't feel like a waste of a journey, as we have got the yearly pass and we are planning on going again soon. The staff were friendly, the grounds were clean and well kept, the food was nice, although expensive. You are allowed picnics in the restaurant area, I feel like they need to have a separate area for people buying food and people who bring their own. Because, even though there are lots of tables, it can get very busy and people who have brought their own food can go anywhere to eat, whilst people who buy from the restaurant can't.
