DONATE NOW Katherine C03/09/2025Verified Great Family Zoo We had a great visit today, Marwell is a brilliant zoo for the younger members of the family because its not too big and we can manage to walk around the whole zoo in a day. The older ones like it too, maybe for the same reason.A bonus for us today, its that it wasn't very busy, maybe because the weather was forecast to be awful?! We got to talk to the keepers in the giraffe enclosure, who were very knowledgeable, see the animals without the crowds and let the kids roam more freely. The cafe at the the end does a good coffee and the food looked great, we didn't eat so can't comment on the food.We love Marwell, this was our 4th visit and we will be back.

Each time I visit a different animal 'stands out' while ones I have seen previously may be tucked up out of sight! Today the highlights for me were the Lemurs, the Sloth and the Rhino's. I highly recommend watching the Lemurs at feeding time, they really tucked into their lunch! Staff were friendly as always, coffee was great and the toilet facilities were clean and well distributed around the park. Angelina W02/09/2025Verified Managed to get great views of many of the animals today! Unsure about visiting due to weather but it was one of our best visits to date. Saw a greater number of animals up close as they were less phased by the rain than we were😂 also easier yo get around and see everything as park not too busy. Used the VR experience which was amazing and great value! jason f31/08/2025Verified A great day out for a family/grandparents looking after the little one Had a lovely day, my biggest recommendation is DOWNLOAD THE APP, the map on there is fantastic, my wife came two weeks ago and enjoyed it, so we came as a family with our grandchild, we started ambling around then downloaded the app, game changer, we were able to go round and see everything that wanted to be seen, we spent 4.5hrs walking around, and she was able to see more than last time thanks to the map within the app, before we departed we both joined as members so we can come as often as we like loutrent31/08/2025Verified Love it We love it here. Got the annual pass which is great so we can just go when ever, no need to book. Lots of animals too see with info at each one. Workers are friendly and happy to chatt about the animals. Look forward to going back again. Harri N31/08/2025Verified Great day out Great day out, saw almost every animal! We couldn't spot the serval but as far as zoos go they have decent enclosures, lots of toilets and good cafes Carol H29/08/2025Verified Awesome experience, enjoyed the entire day . The zoo went miles above our expectations. Amazing , interesting , inspiring to see and understand the work that goes on to continue in the attempt to protect endangered species. We had the most wonderful day , thankyou Michael H29/08/2025Verified Marwell Zoo pass We recently returned from a holiday in East Anglia.Whilst on holiday we were able to use our Marwell Zoo pass to gain free entry to Colchester Zoo, Africa Alive and Banham Zoo thus saving nearly £150. We thought this was excellent. Thank you Marwell. Greylinglady29/08/2025Verified Thank you for a great day. A great day out with my 9 year old great grandson . Memories made and to treasure. All the staff were friendly, knowledgeable and were very willing to help and spend time giving information and guidance . The animals and birds didn't disapoint. Thank you Marwell.
