C&J's Animal Park is a family run organisation and an excellent place to take the kids (or the significant other!) to meet a wide variety of animals, from farm animals to reptiles, and cuddly bunnies to endangered exotics; you can see them all here! FACILITIES
The park is very easy to get around, with flat gravel pathways and easy access to all areas, including our most popular attraction...the Re

ptile House! There are toilets (including a disabled toilet) and dedicated handwashing & sanitising stations on location. We have indoor & outdoor picnic areas on-site so don't forget to bring one! We also have tea, coffee and small snacks available to purchase at the entrance. If you have any special requirements or queries please message us! We will do our best to help. ANIMAL HANDLING SESSIONS
