DONATE NOWPosted on Bethan D27/09/2025Verified A great family day out, at any age We visited today for a family day out, travelling from Cardiff, Bristol and Winchester to meet. I grew up going to Marwell from before I can remember and enjoyed myself just as much now as I did as a young child. There’s a good range of animals and more importantly the animals have huge enclosures with lots of space and enrichment. Two unexpected favourites were the otters and the red river hogs, which were both adorable and very fun to watch. My only feedback would be that I’d love more information about the animals themselves in the enclosure and/ or on the app - instead of a generic summary of hippos, actually saying how many hippos the zoo has, what’s their names, how old they are, any personality traits etc. (also more hippos please).Posted on anita g27/09/2025Verified Visit to marwell Marwell has a good range of things for children to do. There are limited amounts of the animals which can make them difficult to see which is frustrating for younger children. I would suggest adding fixed binoculars near exhibits. There are lots of good facts about the animals but nothing personal about the ones at the zoo. Add information about what the marwell animals are called and Thier favourite foods so the children can relate to them.Posted on Kerry C27/09/2025Verified Great day out for couples ❤️ Amazing, animals look very well looked after, all staff we interacted with were friendly and facilities were pretty good for a zooPosted on Davis G21/09/2025Verified Omg giraffes I love the giraffes!!!!! And other animals 2!!!! Wow so cool so good! So fun! Are the zebras just horses with painted stripes?!!? Who knowsPosted on Amy G21/09/2025Verified Active animals today! We're members and go fairly regularly: every few weeks, I'd guess. Today, we saw so much more than we usually do. Perhaps it was because it we arrived early, perhaps it was the drop in temperature? Needless to say, lots of activity from the animals today. Lovely visit. Thank you, Marwell. A and B xPosted on Danny L21/09/2025Verified My first visit in 10 years My visit Love the Zoo.

First time on the train ride /tour - the driver was very polite and patience. Nice to see all the animals out too.
