Hilarious evening

The welcome and service was good and friendly. Good food. Actors brilliant with interesting twists. Good accommodation with delightful 4 footed ling eared neighbours. A few practical points: Entrance sign on the road hidden behind trees on inside bend - no time to turn left safely. Instructions on use of shower need to be provided, particularly with warning that water can become scalding hot.

Amazing experience. Port Lympne is an absolutely wonderful place to visit.

Staying overnight at the Zoo was an unforgettable experience. So special. Made all the more special by every member of staff we interacted with. They were all amazing. Food was great, we ate at Babydolls (dinner) and Bear Lodge (breakfast). The whole experience is very unique and highly recommended.
