点评:We visited the British Wildlife Centre as a family unit with an inquisitive 2 year old. The attraction was easy to find with ample free parking on arrival. Admission can be booked online or at the entrance with available concessions. Maps are available to highlight all the varied animals and their designated locations. Detailed talks are highlighted throughout the Centre with appropriate times, these talks are detailed and informative and display both knowledge and a passion for the animals in their care. The habitats are naturalistic, easily observed but well protected from prying hands.
There is a large playing area for smaller children with ample picnic tables with families who prefer to bring their own food. The cafe gets very busy at lunchtime and you may not find a table immediately, be prepared to wait. The food I found, was mediocre but reasonably priced.
There is a large gift shop with a selection of keep sakes for younger children. I would have liked to support the Centre with a purchase for myself but the options were limited. You can however sponsor an animal of your choice.
Our family experience was very positive and as season tickets are available to purchase a place that can continue to provide a valuable opportunity to see our wildlife for all ages.
翻译:我们一家人带着一个好奇心旺盛的2岁孩子参观了英国野生动物中心。这个地方很容易找到,到达后还有充足的免费停车位。门票可在线预订,也可在入口处购买,且有各种优惠措施。中心还提供地图,上面标示了各种动物及其所在位置。整个园区内还安排了多场讲解活动,并标注了具体的时间。这些讲解内容详尽且富有信息量,充分体现了讲解员们对所照顾动物的了解与热情。动物栖息地被布置得十分自然,既便于游客观察,又能有效防止被人为干扰。
园区内设有适合低龄儿童的广阔游乐区,还配备了大量野餐桌,供那些乐意自带食物的家庭使用。午餐时段咖啡馆里人潮涌动,可能一时找不到空位,因此请做好排队等候的准备。至于食物,味道只能算一般,不过价格还算合理。这里有一个很大的礼品店,出售多种适合年幼儿童的纪念品。我本想买点东西来支持该中心,但可选的商品并不多。不过,你可以赞助自己喜欢的动物。
我们一家的体验非常愉快;由于可以购买季票,这里无疑是一个能让各个年龄段的游客都有机会欣赏野生动物的绝佳去处。
