   Visited today and was nice and quiet making it easy to walk around and listen to the sounds of the animals around us, was quite surprised by the size of it and the variety of animals however the vast majority of these were birds from what we saw. Was a bit thrown about entering through the shop rather than an actual entrance but otherwise the themed enclosures were great and lots of care and dedication clearly shown to make unique attractions whilst ensuring the needs of the animals were met. Was very pleasantly surprised to find penguins here

   Had an absolutely brilliant day as Newquay zoo. Grandpa treated my identical twin girls to the zoo keeper experience with Rhiann! Unbelievably passionate lady who clearly loves her job and wants kids to love animals as much as she does ! She was amazing! Totally understood my kids and us as parents and Grandpa! Massive smiles and enthusiasm throughout! Truly special person. The zoo is lucky to have her! Thank you so much for making a great impression of the animals and wider world in general! There’s not many people like her and I love it when someone just gets it ! Thanks again ! We will never forget you or Newquay zoo!

   Such a great zoo. I've been coming here for 20 years now and always have a lovely time. The staff who give the animal talks are so friendly and knowledgeable (Emma is our favourite!). A really relaxing day out (especially when the kids are in school and it's nice and quiet!)

   M2 wife and I love animals and we looked to go somewhere that wasn't too far from where we were staying. I personally don't like zoos due to the confined space the animals have. However I do understand for the preservation of the animals something is better than nothing. Saying that Newquay Zoo surprised us . They didn't have the large animals but enough small once that you don't generally see in the bigger zoo's. Both my wife and I had a great time going round. There were lots of family. The children seem to really enjoy it due to some of the exhibits you could walk through and the wild life is around you. Mainly birds. It was really amazing having tropical birds flying around you. There are food places, a main restaurant which did close about 5 pm and an hour short of closing time. I think this should be open until closing time same as the gift shop. Some people like ourselves wanted to see the animals first, by the time we finished we were hungry. Apart from that highly recommended. Ps parking can be difficult due to being shared carpark with other businesses. it is pay and display carpark. I think it would be better to get refund and add donations for the animals. This way the zoo will still make some money for the upkeep as most people would donate their carpark charges. All in All a good little zoo.

   Stunning zoo, staff are really nice to talk to and the animals seem to be very happy here. Not badly priced either compared to other zoo's. Not alot of parking I must say, but overall really well planned out day.

   Fantastic Zoo to visit. My husband took me there whilst we were in Newquay for the weekend in May 2022. Well worth the money. Loved advance tickets are cheaper on their website, so we brought them the day before. Lovely weather. So many species of all varieties we saw. We spent 2/3 hours walking around taking everything in. Highly recommended regardless your age.

   We visited as we were passing by and we have zoo membership for another zoo, so we were able to go for free. Overall it was a good visit, but I'm glad it was free for us to visit as we had done the whole zoo in an hour. All the animals seem well looked after and the staff were very friendly.

   23rd March. Had a lovely family day out. Children loved it. Enough to see and do. I only gave it 4 star as the food vendors were shut and some general maintenance was on going. Accepted as this is still not in season. 1st April _ 31 October you will have to pay for car parking. 4hrs was about £6. Place was very clean. Toilets were spotless. Good range of animals. There were no feeding times on the display but lions were fed about 14:20. Highly recommended. May be very busy in summer though. Price is on par.
