Summary:
This was just out of this world, we stayed at the Shepherd Hut in Pinewood and did two experiences, the Rhino and Lion Feeding, the grounds were just amazing, accommodation brilliant (fit our family of 4 easily and clean) and the care and attention for the animals made this just unlike any other experience we had done, this is a must for any animal lover and there was just so much to speak about, so many amazing memories made. The staff were all so lovely and helpful, the restaurant (The Garden Room) where we had breakfast was wonderful, just wow thanks so much for making the perfect weekend for us.

Summary:
We booked an Ultimate Safari for 2 and when we arrived found out we were the only 2 on this trip.
Amazing 2 and a half hours with a ranger going around the reserve. Fed the giraffes and got to massage a rhino. It was a great experience but it was the Ranger Will that made the whole experience fun and informative. Will was so full of energy and enthusiasm for his job and the whole conservation of animals he really engaged us throughout the experience.
All the staff we interacted with were all friendly and helpful and would highly recommend Port Lympe as a great day out.
