Yorkshire Wildlife Park: Part 1:

Yorkshire Wildlife Park:

Part 1:

This week I went to the wildlife park with my family. I was very excited to spend some time with my family outside. 

On arrival the park once passing the new shop and entrance area we went for lunch. We went to the newly refurbished safari cafe. This was clean, bright and unusually quiet. The menu was varied and had lots of yummy sounding food. With members on staff on hand and knowledgeable about their products. The items were reasonably priced an example was £6.95 for a large portion of quiche and salad. The food arrived quickly and freshly prepared. With large portions and good quality food this was a pleasant surprise from usual burgers and such food.

Then we went into the park fully, We bought the kids the guidebooks which had lots of facts about the animals. Great for when you don't know the answers to the million and one questions they may ask. Also there is a quiz in there to keep them occupied throughout the park.

We did go midweek however it was during the summer holidays, and also one of the special event safari nights. The car park was busy, but once you have entered the park due to the vastness the park didn't feel busy. With no ques to see the animals. 

The children's play areas were busy and the indoor one was very hard to find seats, but this did not cause any issues for the children to play.

I love to walk around the lions to see the landscaping and waterfalls.

As always went to my favourite section: South American Viva to see my Capybara Martha.

This visit the giraffes were outside and I got to see the recent addition to the gang.

I cannot wait to go later this week to see the new Polar bear and stay for the evening to experience the safari night.

Speak soon
