We enjoyed our visit with the kids there, seeing the animals. And the small pic-nic area also features a nice food provider with hot-dogs or fish'n'chips which were surprisingly good :-)

Great place for family and kids, the entrance of the Zoo has farm animals available to see and sometimes touch, all for free! There is also a coffee/tea room. If you go up the road, there is a park for kids and the zoo. You have to pay to enter the zoo, it's not too expensive and they have a good choice for animals. It's not big but interesting and nice to visit. Parking can be complicated but a little walk from the car works. All in all, it's a place worth visiting and spending an afternoon there.

After the harrowing experience of the Berlin zoo, I was very hesitant to visit another one, but this is a completely different beast. Animals look much better and happier than Berlin, and there aren't many "big" ones. As good as a zoo can be, I believe.
