Coombe Martin Wildlife and Dinosaur Park
This has all the makings of a great family day out, but I will begin with negatives first.
The overflow car park is in a hilly field opposite the attraction, on a busy drizzly rainy bank holiday day like the day we went, you might end up with a couple of issues trying to get your vehicle out if the weather turned into torrential rain. However there are quite a few helpful parking attendants, some driving diggers around. The attendants are however very organized in getting people parked, but you could end up a few hundred meters away from the attraction and on a grassy hill, so bare this in mind if you are coming with a pregnant wife, young children who need push chairs, or infirm elderly relative, and on a family bank holiday outing you might have all three. I am also afraid navigating ...
Advantages: A good day out, can get close to lots of the animals, adventure play area Disadvantages: Entry fee a little excessive

Wildlife Park 2 offers players a spectacular 3D wildlife experience as yet unparalleled in simulation games. This game is centred on the animals' interaction with the players themselves, their fellow creatures, the landscape, the play apparatus, and with the visitors to the park. The animals' lifelike behaviour, the high-quality movement animation, and the realistic plant, water and weather simulations make Wildlife Park 2 a real treat for everyone not just for animal and nature-lovers. Take on the role of a zoo director and make sure that your park is a place where animals and people are well looked after! This doesn't just mean keeping an eye on the budget; you'll also be facing the challenge of reconciling economy and ecology. The ability to breed back long-extinct species is a special bonus.
