Love that the animals are here but the living spaces and quality of life does leave alot to be desired for not mis treated by any means from what I know but the deer have the largest space and it does seem small given the size of the herd but is a beautiful thing at the same time, I am not leaving a bad review by any means I just care deeply for animals.

πŸ† Family Action Verdict

Best for families with toddlers and primary-age children who want close animal contact without an admission charge. The woodland setting rewards explorers and the variety of animals β€” from deer to rabbits β€” keeps young attention engaged. Older children may want more structured activity, so pair it with a picnic and explore the surrounding park.

⏰Animal feeding sessions are run by staff β€” arrive when the park opens for the best chance of joining one

β€œCan’t believe we’ve only just found this park right near our house! Love all the animals, and will come back for a tour, for sure. Hopefully we can give a donation, or pay for the tour, because I don’t want this place to go away ever.”

β€œMaryon Wilson Animal Park is such a lovely local gem! A peaceful spot with plenty of space to wander, beautiful woodland, and a great variety of animals for children to enjoy. My little ones loved spotting the deer, goats and chickens; it’s such a calm, natural environment for them to explore and learn. It’s free to enter, which is amazing, and it’s clear the animals are well looked after. Great for a relaxed day out with the kids or a scenic walk through the trees. We’ll definitely be back with a picnic next time!”
