“Second time and will be going again”
This is the second time we have been on an overnight stay at The Big Cat Sanctuary. It is simply a magical place and worth every penny. Nothing is too much trouble for the staff, and the keepers clearly love and are passionate about what they are doing. The accommodation is high class, the food made on site, fresh and fantastic and the big cat hand feeds and tours of the site are out of this world. If you are thinking about it, go for it!!
