Two Night Break for Two
Fred · 16-06-2025

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.

Overnight Country Escape with Dinner for Two

Great Stay

Lovely relaxing atmosphere. Greeted with a roaring wood fire making the wet weather tolerable. Check in was seamless and the bar and restaurant very welcoming. Food was superb and staff polite, cheerful and helpful. Big bonus being dog friendly, they were accepted everywhere except the restaurant which was understandable. No problem we ate in the bar and as all the other guests did too it made for a really warm and friendly atmosphere. First visit here and it will definitely not be our last.

Toby · 12-05-2026

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.
Hog Deer Creek Stay with Safari for Two Adults and Two Children at Port Lympne Hotel and Reserve

Great experience

Paul was the perfect host and font of all knowledge. His expertise is second to none. Explained the background to distilling and what the process was to produce the perfect gin. We had a gin on arrival, another during our time there and a lovely little grazing board. My finished bottle came with a personalised label. We stayed after as the distillery has a fabulous bar to continue our tasting experience! Would absolutely recommend.

Brilliant

It was a wonderful day, spent 5 hours there. The whole volunteer team are a credit, so good to see some young ones in the mix as well. The afternoon tea was lovely and the home made scones were superb and that is coming from a Cornish girl
