点评:Visited with my 5 year old and 3 month old. My son has a disability and we were able to park inside the zoo for free with his Blue Badge. There's several carparks dotted around the zoo, which whilst is great for people who have reduced mobility, it was a bit odd walking round the zoo and popping out into a carpark occasionally.
The zoo is really well set up for people with disabilities. There's a large changing places toilet which we used several times. There's also toilets which are opened by motion sensor which is great for people with reduced mobility. All areas are easily accessible and there's a large play park with plenty of sensory elements. There's so many open green spaces and picnic benches to sit on, including ones undercover.
We paid extra to go on the train (you get a free carer ticket for this too) and this was great to see some of the animals we didn't get chance to walking around.
The enclosures are the best I've seen at any zoo. The animals have so much space and my Husband likened the zoo to a 'walking safari park' which is definitely what it felt like! The downside to this is that you can feel like you've walked a lot without necessarily seeing much, however I really appreciate how much space the animals have.
Some of the enclosures seemed a bit of a walk from anytning else, such as the penguins which seem a bit stuck out and forgotten.
We had food from the Base Camp cafe. This is table service and food was pretty standard prices for a zoo. Tasty enough and filled us up. We later had an icecream from the carte dor stand, again good prices and tasty icecream.
Overall we had a lovely day, such a big zoo that we couldn't see everything in a day. Loved how accessible it was.
翻译:我带着5岁和3个月大的儿子一起参观了动物园。我儿子是残疾人,我们可以凭他的蓝色徽章免费在动物园内停车。动物园周围分布着几个停车场,虽然对行动不便的人来说很方便,但在动物园里走走,偶尔突然跑到停车场还是有点不自在。
动物园为残障人士提供了非常便利的设施。动物园里有一个很大的更衣室,我们用过几次。还有一些由运动传感器开启的厕所,对行动不便的人来说也非常方便。所有区域都很容易进入,还有一个大型游乐园,里面有很多感官体验项目。动物园里有很多开放的绿地和野餐桌可以坐,包括一些带顶棚的。
我们额外付费乘坐了小火车(乘坐小火车还可以获得一张免费的护理员票),很高兴能看到一些我们没机会四处走动的动物。
动物园的围栏是我在任何动物园里见过的最好的。动物们的活动空间非常宽敞,我丈夫把动物园比作“步行野生动物园”,感觉确实如此!缺点是,你可能会觉得走了好多路,却没看到多少东西。不过,我真的很欣赏动物们拥有如此宽敞的活动空间。
有些围栏似乎离其他地方有点远,比如企鹅,它们似乎有点被忽视了。
我们在Base Camp咖啡馆吃了点东西。这是餐桌服务,食物的价格在动物园里相当标准。味道不错,我们吃饱了。后来我们在carte dor小摊上吃了个冰淇淋,价格也很合适,冰淇淋也很美味。
总的来说,我们度过了愉快的一天,动物园很大,我们一天之内不可能看完所有的东西。我喜欢它的交通便利。
