You'll be wild about Combe Martin Park. Set in twenty five acres of beautiful woods and parkland, our renowned Wildlife and Dinosaur Park offers you and your family the perfect day out.

Within this natural setting on the edge of stunning Exmoor you can see over 250 species of plants and animals including Great Pines, Sub-tropical Gardens and Bamboo, and experience some breathtaking views that will leave you feeling inspired.

Don't miss our large collection of primates, fantastic falconry, Sea Lion Show, free flying parrots and much more.

Conservation

Here at the park you can witness conservation in action, because we're involved in a number of worldwide breeding programs' including saving several endangered species like the snow leopard. Although protected by law, this exquisite cat has almost been hunted to extinction, and we are proud to play our part in its survival. We're also lending a hand protecting the Goeldis Monkey and the Red Ruffed Lemur.

Dinosaurs

Set in natural parkland there are life size dinosaurs, including our animated Velociraptor and 'Spitting' Dilophosaurus, made famous by the Jurrasic Park Movie. Marvel at the sound and movement of our animated 22ft Tyrannosaurus Rex and Stegasaurus, as well as our Pterodactyls, four Velociraptors and 40ft Triceratops.
