    Chester Zoo vies (with Whipsnade) as the UK's best zoo.

    Chester Zoo vies (with Whipsnade) as the UK's best zoo. This is a stunning, world class zoo with a broad and mainly breeding collection, supporting associated conservation projects globally. I would like more detailed information available online about habitats/animals but on the ground, a day-long visit leaves you wanting even more. Enjoy! Then come again.....

    Can spend the whole day here and still not manage to see everything, absolutely love this place! Would suggest to bring your own lunch though, can be crowded at the on-site food places and it's not cheap!

    Plan your trip ahead so you don't miss out on the animal feeding times. Download the phone app before you leave. Fabulous day out, but you need comfortable shoes as there is lots of walking. We took a packed lunch and drinks as the prices would have made the day trip very expensive.

    Get there early or late to beat the crowds.

    Get there early or late to beat the crowds. Currently there is a lot of queuing to get in to see anything, but we didn't get to see any of the big cats. Very poor distancing in all open areas and in the queues. (Poor)

    Fantastic "Zoo".

    Fantastic "Zoo". The animals all looked so well cared for and were in great habitats. We walked around Zoo for about 5 hours to ensure we saw all the animals, so need to wear comfortable shoes and clothes.

    Location was really close to Cheshire Oaks, Chester Zoo and Planet Aquarium. Several local pubs and dining places around. All facilities as advertised on website. Even extras (tea, coffee, milk, biscuits etc,)in the cottage on arrival, very nice. Very quiet area on country lane. Locals all pleasant and welcoming. Hot tub fantastic & ready upon arrival. Brilliant for a quiet relaxing getaway. Will definitely be going back. *****
