Longleat

Reviewed By Speckycatlady - Cardiff, United Kingdom

With endless attractions, you need at least one full day to visit Longleat and explore,. The Safari is great fun and the free Safari app provides an informative commentary while viewing the animals - make sure to unscrew your aerial before you visit the monkey enclosure! We spent at least an hour driving around the safari. Enjoy a boat trip to feed the sealions, handle some exotic creatures in the Jungle Kingdom, pet some farm animals in the petting farm, feed nectar to the lorikeets and experience the bat cave. Longleat country house is beautiful to explore, as are the grounds. Round off the day with food at one of the many food establishments on site, and take a train ride around the outskirts of the park before leaving.

Longleat House

Reviewed By NikkiJS76 - Bristol, United Kingdom

We went to longleat over the weekend where they had some hot air balloon event, the weather stayed dry, the safari was good fun, the house was massive as a family we loved to explore and find interesting facts. A lovely day out.... the food was quite average in cost, £6£7 for hotdog and chips or burgers but just very basic. Think its cheaper if you buy tickets online think it was £135 for a family of 5 but it was well worth it.

Bush Farm Bison Centre

Reviewed By sineadmcsorley - East Knoyle, United Kingdom

We have just returned from 2 nights woodland camping at the bison farm and loved it !!! With 4 adults and 5 young children aged 7 and under the pitch was plenty big enough. The site has an area for a camp fire (bags of wood supplied at £6 a bag) was more than enough to last us the 2 nights. Ladies & gents toilet block with showers ( 2 x £1 coins to release the shower door ) Sinks outside the toilet block with both hot and cold water to wash pots and pans and for drinking water. Baby changing available. Toilets and showers were cleaned daily by the lady that runs the farm , and detol and a cloth and mop was available to clean after individual use. Toilet roll was regularly replaced also. Little onsite gift shop/shop that sells sweets, crisp, icecreams , drinks, meat (bison & elk) and milk etc. Card payment was available. The owners of the farm live onsite (opposite the shop) so were always around and more than happy to help , they also allowed us to store a few bits in the fridges and freeze our ice blocks. There was plenty of room for the children to ride push bikes and play. There's a little play park , and sand pit for the younger ones. We enjoyed the farm walk and seeing the lake and animals: Bison , Elk , Chickens , Turkey , Owls , Ponies, Donkey, Ducks & Goats. We also went Slow berrie picking (to make gin when we get home) and enjoyed a picnic in one of the lovely gardens! If camping in a tents not for you then the farm also have lovely pods available to stay in. Cant think of any negatives , absolutely lovely stay! Thankyou
