Kingston Maurward Animal Park

Come and meet the animals in our Animal Park

Tug, Sparky, Tiny Tim, Pepper and Holly make up our collection of miniature Shetland ponies and together with the donkeys they are very willing to offer children the chance to groom them some weekends and during school holidays providing conditions are suitable.

Gertie and Mabel our two Boer goats have now got some company with Tops, Tails and Twisel who are Angora goats. They have recently been joined by Jessie and Lucy who are Toggenburg goats whilst Poppy and Amy are Saanen goats.
 
Ziggi and Quinn are the Kune Kune pigs which originate from New Zealand and are very friendly. We have numerous pigs in the park and their offspring can usually be seen running around the animal park after having "escaped" from their field.
 
We have a large collection of smaller animals, guinea pigs, rabbits, ducks and chickens and children are encouraged to join in the animal handling sessions taking place at various times during weekends and summer holidays.

The new play area is very popular and a new sand pit will be built very soon. New attractions have arrived at Kingston Maurward including emus, owls and peacocks. More new animals will be arriving soon.
 
There is a large picnic area and refreshment kiosk selling drinks and snacks during busy periods. The Visitor Centre provides information on the Gardens, Animals and the Wildlife that you can look out for in the grounds. The shop sells a wide selection of small gifts and plants.
