Lovely stay at chew valley farm. Our daughter, 3 years old, loved seeing all the animals and to be able to walk round every morning as the animals were all having their breakfast was a bonus. Hosts were lovely, even showing us a baby wallaby! Many more animals at the park than advertised on here so you won't be disappointed. Accommodation was cleanRead more and child friendly.

Spotlessly clean and very pleasant and comfortable accommodation. Having the zoo and restaurant on site were huge bonuses!

A few issues with equipment but hopefully they will be resolved quickly and, toRead more be fair, we booked with only one days notice in February so we were probably the first people in.

If you like animals, you must stay at this property! There were camels at the bottom of the garden! We were able to wander around the animal park when we liked, so we could hang out with the goats and their kids, the wallabies and their joey, the ring tailed lemurs and many more, when no one else was around. The huge sky , the view of rolling hillsRead more beyond the park and the absence of traffic noise were also wonderful. Hide
