Such a wonderful day out. Really decent sized zoo with a huge range of birds to look at and interact with. My son loved how closely you could see the birds. The Toucan and owls were our favourites! Some lovely interactive ideas too e.g. finding the mice figures in the owl parliament and the selfie Christmas trail. Covid wise it felt very very safe! We will definitely be returning! My only suggestion would be if there was a book we could have purchased with a list of the birds on that we could have ticked off as we spotted them. This may be something that is there but we missed it?

I took my younger brother to Birdworld for a day out. It was great- an amazing and unexpected array of birds, other farm animals and other exhibits. There were lovely festive features, dinosaur walks, and animals we’d never heard of! There was lots of really interesting information about all of the animals which we enjoyed reading, a lot of which was really surprising!!
The staff were all fantastic but special mention to Nicki who did the Pelican feeding. She was genuinely passionate, she seemed to really love the animals and had a special way with them. She was very knowledgeable and answered all our questions very well!
Highly recommended, and thank you Nicki!

Birdworld is a superb small zoo in Surrey that, unsurprisingly, specialises in birds. There's an astonishing variety of birds on offer, including countless endangered species - many critically endangered or even extinct in the wild. It's clear that the staff here treat their charges with the utmost care, with animals placed in enclosures that match their needs.
I visited with a couple of friends who are both animal enthusiasts - in fact, one is an academic and former zookeeper - and we all thoroughly enjoyed the experience. If you feel that the animals here are cruelly imprisoned, it's likely that you have never been to any other zoos, nor have you any appreciation of the conservation work that Birdworld are doing. Fortunately, copious signage not only explains which species are on show - which is hugely appreciated! - but also which are endangered and why. There are some here that even my well-travelled friend had never seen before.
This is a lovely little zoo, and they deserve whatever praise is coming to them. I'm sure that, like most zoos, they suffered greatly during the pandemic restrictions. That might be why the old aquarium closed, which is a shame. Nevertheless, Birdworld is a good zoo.
Oh, and I purchased a substantial and quite tasty pasty in the main cafe for £3.50, which isn't bad going.

I start by saying that I (we) are massive animal lovers and it pains me to leave this review because I know it could dissuade others from going to Birdworld, which in turn will take money from it but given how we both felt, after leaving the place last week, I have to write this review.
Imagine going to a prison for birds and imagine seeing their sad faces in cramped and sad conditions. I'm sure the workers there care for the birds but it is just an establishment that crams birds of all sizes into cages and hutches so that you pay money to gawk at them.
My wife and I popped in on the off chance think we might see some hawks flying, or a few nesting birds in large aviaries but we were greeted with beautiful and exotic birds looking sad and dejected and in small little poke holes in the wall in corridors. The ones outside would look to the sky to see other birds flying, only to be squeezed up against cold bars with no escape. It would be like being put in prison for no crime but with the windows of the prison cell on the high street, knowing you would never be released but just hoping you would.
We lasted all of 15 minutes in there before my wife burst into tears and we left. I understand that birds raised in captivity know no better but this is mental cruelty to animals. Knowing that these birds are mere attractions for money, yet they will stay in their cramped cages for years before they die just fills you with sadness that as humans, we can do this to animals.
These Victorian prisons need to be shut down for good. Watch David Attenborough for a day and realise the beauty of animals from afar and don't be selfish to think that animals are there for your pleasure. It's unfair and children shouldn't be raised to think it is right.

Went here despite a fear of birds and found myself loving it. My boyfriend and I spent a few hours looking at all the animals and had a lot of fun. We could have stayed for longer too but it was getting quite late. There was so much to look at, including the farm, which is brilliant, especially the goat enclosure that you can walk around. I really want to go back and buy some bird food next time and maybe spend longer there because it was great and I want to catch some of the talks next time too. Really good lunch bought there too although some of it was REALLY reasonably priced and some of it wasn't. My boyfriend got a whole meal for about £5.50 and my very average BLT sandwich was nearly £5, so it was a bit odd, but still very tasty (I had some of my boyfriend's chips and they were delicious!). Overall a really good day and can't wait to visit again. The birds all seem really happy and very well looked after, and I liekd the fact that every cage was full, so I was never looking at nothing.

We went here for a day out as we were staying on the area for the week. We were very pleased and had a good day out. It was much bigger than we expected. We bought some food which you purchase when you buy tickets to feed the birds with which was a great thing to do. Fully recommend for a great day out.

A loverly relaxing day out. Birdworld is beautifully set up with great enclosures for the birds which are very well cared for. Went with my teenage children, spent nearly the whole day there, they loved feeding many of the birds with the meal worms you can buy, some feeding from your hand!
This was our 3rd trip and will definitely go again

What is wheelchair access like
BirdworldSurrey
Farnham, UK
Hi there, Although Birdworld is a large site, it is all flat with good paths throughout most of the site. There are disabled facility loos throughout the park plus plenty of disabled facility parking close to the entrance. There are also lots of places to stop and rest. We do have a number of wheelchairs on site which are available to use at no charge. It is best to phone ahead and book these and we do ask for a returnable deposit.
We hope that you enjoy your visit

Do you need a day there or could you visit the park in 3 hours
Geekyme

You could do it in 3 hours if you have to. Having a toddler we never manage to leave the house until afternoon. I have been there twice and each time for about 4 hours. There are three areas, an aquarium, birds and the farm. the park is covered in the first couple of hours, rest of the time kids spend in the play area or running around the farm.

During the penguin experience are you able to touch the penguins please
BirdworldSurrey
Farnham, UK
Hi there, After the actual feeding, you will always get the opportunity to get 'up close and personal' with our penguins. We do always try to include the opportunity to carefully stroke the penguins but this is dependent upon the animals on the day and therefore can not be guaranteed.
Thanks for your question and apologies for the delay in getting back to you.

Yes there is a restaurant at the main entrance plus kiosks around the park. In addition you can access the restaurant at our adjoining Garden Centre, Forest Lodge. Please visit our website to view seasonal opening of all of these outlets.

Have you considered building a bird hide / feeders so that visitors can enjoy the more common british birds also? We are members and come regularly.
BirdworldSurrey
Farnham, UK
We do encourage wild birds here at Birdworld and do have lots of feeders around the park but particularly in the wildlife garden. Building a hide is not something that we are currently considering but would certainly not rule it out. Thanks for your feedback.

Hi,
Thanks Mark A for answering my previous question.
I can see on google maps that there's a Forest Garden Centre, Can one buy entrance ticket from there and go inside or does it have to be from the main entrance only?
The reason I asked this because, I will have a senior citizen with me and it be shorter to walk to Animal farm as that's the main reason we are doing this visit.
Thanks.
BirdworldSurrey
Farnham, UK
Yes you can buy tickets at the 'Link Entrance' which is accessible from Forest Lodge Garden Centre. Be aware however that this entrance is subject to seasonal opening so it maybe worth checking by phone prior to your visit to avoid any disappointment.

Hi,
What is the best time to visit the farm animal ? Can one stroke and feed them ?
Also, Is it a long walk (considering that I am taking my 80 year old Grandpa) from Safari train ride to the Farm animals ?
Thanks
BirdworldSurrey
Farnham, UK
Hi there, The farm is open throughout the day with lots of opportunity to interact with the animals. We have additional daily Animal Encounter sessions at the farm (on all days that we are fully open) , times of which are displayed at the entrance each day. Although the park is quite large, it is all flat with lots of seating throughout.
