Cotswold Wildlife Park

Cotswold Wildlife Park

Cotswold Wildlife Park and Gardens is situated approximately 17 miles north-east of Swindon. It is set in 160 acres of parkland and gardens, with a wide variety of animals from around the world, including rhinos, Asiatic lions, leopards and primates. The gardens are a major feature of the park. The Walled Garden is highly acclaimed for the exotic planting including bananas, daturas, and cannas, and within this area is the Tropical House and the ever-popular meerkats in their unique ‘arid-scape’ landscape enclosure, penguins and a number of small mammals and tropical birds. Throughout the park, you will find prairie-style plantings, various herbaceous and mixed borders colour and imaginative containers with seasonal displays. A superb venue for gardeners and their children.

The park has something for all members of the family and has good access for the disabled. Facilities include a caféteria, picnic area, children’s farmyard, adventure playground and gift shops. Throughout the summer months there are regular birds of prey flying demonstrations, animal’s encounters and occasional car rallies.
