Three out of five is very generous.
Staff in reception area/ticket office very pleasant and helpful.
From here it went down hill.
Alright it was a cold January day but……
All enclosures very dilapidated and in need of a very good clean up.
The Shetland pony and donkey both in need of a good grooming.
One of anteaters coat looked very thin and in poor condition.
I could go on if I had seen more.
Will I be back- not unless there is a drastic improvement in animal welfare.

We visited here on our way to Dundee. My husband had always wanted to visit here , from being given a book as a child of British Zoos in 1976 , and this was one of the zoos listed . It is difficult to find as Google kept taken us to a pedestrian entrance, you have to drive around the whole park and enter through the Countryside Park entrance before you see the sign to the wildlife centre. It is extremely cheap to get in at £7. It started well with a friendly welcome and when my husband asked about the zoo history the receptionist kindly went and got him some information boards that had been used in a recent display to celebrate an anniversary. Very interesting reading. We decided to eat first and there is a fairly new cafe at the entrance, however the staff were not very friendly and were told that several things were not available including brown bread. We had toasted sandwiches but were made with really cheap ham , cheese and horrible side of coleslaw. Just tasteless. Would not recommend eating there. When we entered into the zoo we were so disappointed everything looked very run down and uncared for, Overgrown grass both in and out of the enclosures, fences broken and fallen down , ugly metal security fences that had been put in front of some of the enclosures , some of the animals showing stereotypical behaviour and some looking in very poor condition. Strangely in some places there was a random new exhibit which looked out of place with the state of everything there. It could be a lovely little zoo as it is set in a beautiful walled garden , but with a back drop of a huge greenhouse full of broken panes of glass and full of rubbish it looks very sad. In the reception they had on show a copy of their recent zoo inspection , which was quite telling with lots of urgent recommendations to be carried out within a couple of months. From inadequate staff training and lack of qualified staff on duty, to enclosures and fencing needing repair, care needed in animal feeding regimes and health monitoring the list went on. They had a lot to do to get their full licence. The zoo is owned by the council and it looks like it has been affected by council cuts or has a lack of suitable zoo staff to manage the animal care or grounds/ enclosure . Only charging £7 I can't believe they could make enough money to cover the running costs of the zoo. Such a shame and I would not recommend anyone visiting until it has turned itself around

Got my daughter a Junior Zookeeper experience for her 15th birthday and we went on a Saturday. It was brilliant - she got to feed some of the animals by hand, including lemurs and gibbons. Scratched the back of a warty pig. Hid the food for the ocelot. Met the bears. Scattered mealworms for the meerkats.
The keepers were lovely, very friendly and informative and we had a great time. The experience lasts about 2 hours. I would highly recommend this for an animal-loving teenager - especially if they have a parent/guardian who loves animals too, as they need to be accompanied by an adult. (This was a bonus as far as I'm concerned!) Most successful birthday present ever - well worth the £80 spend. We thoroughly enjoyed it and would do it again in an instant!

Camperdown Wildlife Park was worth a visit, indeed enjoyed our visit, the animals seem to be well cared for and living in spaces that are not just adequate though of a good size with enriching activities. The entry price was £7 for adults which was a fair price and there is a good amount to see plus its not over crowded. The only negativity for us was the staff, this is not a warm and welcoming place to visit, indeed it felt somewhat toxic. Between a miserable (older) female operating the till as we went in, to a young girl standing around behind the counter in the cafe when the queue was out the door and the other staff were pulling their weight, this member of staff was giving my daughter the most awful dirty looks, why we don't know when we are not from the area and have no connection to it! Our visit was on Saturday 7th September in the afternoon.

Very good for the price, lots to see. We thought we would have lunch in the cafe but it was out of our price range. I suggest you take your own food as the cafe is very expensive. £1.60 for a packet of Pom bears, £9.50 for a jacket potato etc. The animal enclosures were all very clean & the animals all looked healthy.

You will see from my other reviews I always look for and find positives about the places/venues/restaurants I've visited. However I'm really struggling here, other than the staff members were all polite and friendly.
Our visit started with a lunch in the Cafe, all was fine ordering and siting, plenty of staff keeping things tidy etc. We ordered 3 x Nachos at £11 each, what we were served was a cereal bowl (at best) of Tortillas, which were ok, a scoop of Chilli, which again was ok. However on top was a white unidentifiable goo, we tried to identify it, but failed, no cheese, no salsa or guacamole. Our son ate his and actually ate a chunk of ours until we stopped him for fear of his health, we both ate the Chilli and Tortillas that weren't contaminated by the goo.
Now I must hold my hands up, we didn't bring our displeasure to any staffs attention and I really don't know why! We just left feeling very aggrieved at the lunch quality and cost, I should have said something and allowed the manager etc to do something about it.
As for the Wildlife Centre, our perception is shared by so many others and has now made national news, massively over grown weeds (Mainly) around the public areas and inside the majority of enclosures, low hanging branches over public paths, Items with in the enclosures that were clearly broken/smashed and I believe could have caused harm to the animals/birds within, broken and unkempt fences. This led to the overall perception of the enclosures being far to small (for the majority) and nowhere near enough space for the birds etc to fly/move about. There is a place for Wildlife Centres, however when they are this poorly managed it just leaves you wanting to free the poor animals or wanting the appropriate organisations/authority to inspect them and provide enforceable recommendations. I really do hope something happens that sees the Centre improve dramatically and those animals quality of life reach a level they deserve. **Management do better**

Run down and looking sad. Money spent on expensive cafe but not animal areas. Needs a good gardener and fill the empty spaces

The whole place is just sad. So many empty enclosures and overgrown so can’t tell if there is animals in or not. Really needs massive investment or close the doors. Felt sorry for most of the animals living in the conditions they are. Certainly won’t take my grandson back.

It felt a little run down with a lot of the enclosures overgrown and quite small for the animals. I felt sorry for the animals as the bears didn’t have near enough water in their pool, the pens for monkeys seemed small and hugely overgrown. The ant eater had made what looked to be a track around its pen, with weeds overgrown in the middle. The keepers were informative and attentive to the animals when feeding but the grounds really need some improvements to ensure the best for these lovely animals.

Hi. I am just wondering if the cafe prices are reasonable. Planning a trip with 5 adults and 3 children. Thanks
كُتب بتاريخ 12 يوليو 2019
I find prices are always in the high side when there’s no where else to eat. I would suggest taking a picnic, a few benches and grassy areas. You are allowed to leave and come back in so dont have to take the picnic around with you.

How much does the entrance fee cost
