Re: South Lakes Wild Animal Park.......
Yes we've been and I think it's brilliant too. It amazes me that all that is there because you could easily fail to even notice its existence from going along the road.

Re: South Lakes Wild Animal Park.......
I`d also recommend going for the christmas celebrations up there, during december santa and his reindeers pay a visit and they get the kids dressed up to perform a nativity in a barn with a donkey and sing some carols...........then they meet the man himself and can even write him a letter and they get a reply...all for the entrance fee( they don`t put it up at xmas either) some of the animals are in hiding because of the weather if its cold but if you have little `uns its well worth going. Oh and you get free mulled wine/tea/coffee and a mince pie thrown in.......

Re: South Lakes Wild Animal Park.......
Absolutely used to love going up to South lakes animal park when the kids were younger, in fact we used to get the season ticket...even the journey, which can be quite a trek was part of the fun!!

Re: South Lakes Wild Animal Park.......
I've been up there and had a brilliant time. I agree with those who say you wouldn't notice it if you didn't know it was there! But once you find it... well it's something you will treasure! It's fantastic.
