At the Wildheart Animal Sanctuary we look forward to welcoming you to meet our wonderful animals for an immersive and stimulating visit. You will meet some of the most exciting, yet threatened animals on our planet, including Tigers, Lions, Meerkats, Lynx, Reptiles and much more. The Sanctuary rescues many of its inhabitants from poor and inhumane conditions around Europe. There are daily talks from our Animal Carers and also animal encounters to help you have the opportunity to get up close and hands-on with our animal residents. You will discover and learn about the journeys of how the animals came to the Sanctuary and their vital role in championing the cause for their species in the wild overseas. There is a large animal playground to tire the little ones out. Enjoy delicious, fresh and local food and drink from our Wildheart Café overlooking Sandown Bay. Or you can picnic in the company of our Capuchin and Spider monkeys!

I did not see any, but well worth calling them as they are very helpful and genuinely interested in giving access. In case it helps, it is not a huge area to cover and there are many sitting places from where you can see the animals. Enjoy your visit.
What is the play area like ? Is there much to do with a toddler? Thank you.

Hi Alexandra There is a new and much improved play area that was very popular when we were there. Besides the animals there is also a reptile and insect house with handling for children if they are brave! Also great talks on the animals at regular intervals through the day. And a cafe of course. Hope that helps.
