Longleat or Woburn safari parks?

Anyone got a preference? We're about equal distance between the two and trying to decide which one to visit on friday.

The children are 11, 7 & 3 will also maybe have my 16yr old with us too.

What are they like for food? Would I be better off with a packed lunch?

Thanks

I am nearer to Woburn but prefer longleat. Far more to do after the safari park. The drive through at longleat is bigger as well.

That said either is great fun.

Thanks. We're in windsor today instead. Although we will be going to one of them next week after the bank holiday.

I haven't been to Longleat but I was a bit disappointed by Woburn. Apart from the monkeys the other animals were few and far between. The non safari bits were OK but too young for a 16 yo imo.

I took a picnic but if the price of the ice creams and sweets is anything to go by the food would be £££ although the cafes were very busy.

Longleat is much much better than Woburn.

Longleat it is then. Thanks.

Not sure the 16yo will come with us but would be nice ifhe did.

We've just been to longleat and thought it was great value - we stayed until after 7pm from opening and are already planning a return trip!

Whichever you decide I am sure it will be a great day out tho. Smile
