Shepreth Wildlife Park
sarahinthepark and I took her adorable offspring to Shepreth Wildlife Park near where they live in Cambridgeshire. It's a pretty well put together little zoo with a good variety of mostly smaller animals and farmyard type things. It's got decent sized enclosures for most of the animals, although the big cats (lynx, mountain lion and tigers which never showed themselves) were maybe a little cramped. We actually chatted with a keeper a while about one of the raccoons who seemed really stressed out and the keeper did a really good job of explaining why the raccoon was behaving that way and really showed how much she cared.
From a "travelling with toddlers" point of view (a consideration I'm becoming increasingly, if somewhat reluctantly accustomed to) it's a mixed bag. The restaurant area was busy, noisy and not terribly friendly. Outside areas to eat were a bit limited, and mostly in the sun. But on the plus side they had a lovely soft play room solely for smaller children and lying in the ball pool was the happiest I've been in a while, even if the twins didn't like it much.
