Birdworld
Birdworld near Farnham in Surrey is the biggest bird park in the UK. It covers 26 acres and is home to a great variety of birds, plus the Jenny Wren children’s farm. Birdworld is home to two penguin exhibits: Penguin Island, with a colony of Humboldt penguins and Penguin Beach, home to their colony of endangered African penguins. Opened in 2017, the Terry Pratchett Owl Parliament is a great place to see several owl species.
They have recently expanded their offerings with a brilliant mix of indoor and outdoor play areas, giving families even more to do during a visit. The outdoor space includes a large adventure play zone with climbing frames, slides and plenty of room for kids to run off steam between exploring the animal exhibits. Indoors, the newer play area provides a bright, weather‑proof space with mostly wooden play equipment, perfect for younger children or for taking a break on rainy days.
There are parrots housed throughout the park. Parrots in Flight is one of their largest aviaries, and it is a great place for the birds to stretch their wings. They also have a walkthrough exhibit that is home to their flock of budgies and several of Australia’s other small bird species. Flamingo Cove is also a relatively new addition and is home to their flock of, yes, you’ve guessed it, flamingos.
The Jenny Wren Farm is a great place for families to get close to some of Birdworld’s fluffier residents with rabbits, pigs, sheep, reindeer and more. There is also a flying arena where you can see daily shows, plus a wildlife garden and woodland walk. There are two outdoor play areas, plus a willow maze and a safari train. They offer penguin feeding experiences.
