👍👍 Great little place to take the kids for a hour or more. Super friendly and helpful staff, we visited on one of the hottest days of the year and the animals was being well cared for. Plenty of car parking space, easy access for the less able bodied. The £3.50 entrance fee was very reasonable consider... People often mention cafe, animals,

    Great little place to take the kids for a hour or more. Super friendly and helpful staff, we visited on one of the hottest days of the year and the animals was being well cared for. Plenty of car parking space, easy access for the less able bodied. The £3.50 entrance fee was very reasonable considering other attractions in the area. Well thought out locations for hand washing and plenty. Refreshments available from the on site horse box. The garden center also had a good selection of healthy plants available to buy. Would certainly recommend!

    I love coming down here. There's so much to do with the children and a wide selection of animals to look at. One thing I like is the access to the rife, which if you follow down it goes to the beach. I think the nature down here is honestly just stunning. The actual country centre has a play park for the kids, as well as a cafe with a good selection of tasty food. Honestly, this place has my heart and I love coming down here.

    We had a lovely time at Ferring Country Centre. Such a great space for all the animals they have there. There’s a children’s outdoor playground, as well as an indoor soft play area for a small additional cost. The service in the cafe and food was really good too. We will be back again. Thanks.

    Often visit the Centre's cafe always a lovely welcome when you go through the door. The young cafe staff are always very friendly. Food is good too. I visited yesterday and there was an older person working in the cafe. She was unfriendly, even rude. Just took plates from tables without even asking if people had finished. Behind the counter she was no better. Please bring back the young people.

    Lovely little place to take the kids. Also take my clients here who are wheelchair users. Easily accessible. Lots of animals to look at. Food always very tasty and service is always good. Very inclusive which I love! Staff and volunteers in the cafe really friendly and always want to chat ❤️

    Had a lovely time here today. Huge variety of animals to look at and lots to do for children. Small play area inside and a play area outside. Cafe was lovely, had a nice lunch and most definitely a home-made mince pie! Staff were friendly. Lovely gift shop too.

    The horse riding was great had a great time not so great at the cafe took 10/15 mins to wait to get our drinks but to top it off couldn't go to the park so my daughter could have fun and see the animals they were going to charge us £5 pear person when last year was free don't think that's right at all

👍👍 Really great place for adults as well as children. I brought my elderly and disabled mother here along with her sister. Both of them have Alzheimer's. The staff were really friendly and helpful. Carers get free entrance. The pathways are pretty sound and everywhere is pretty accessible. The animals...
