Monkey World

Has anyone been there? Is it good?
Charly and I are thinking of treating ourselves to a weekend down there in May so if you can recommend anywhere not too expensive too stay we would be grateful.

Oh my word, it is FANTASTIC there!!

I went after attending the Great Dorset Steam Fayre so can't recommend anywhere to stay unless a tent is ok for you?

I haven't been there although I keep promising my self.
I watched the programme on the TV and cried for Jim Cronin when he died. Such a nice man.

Not been there but when I was looking for a wedding venue a friend at work bought me a leaflet back from Monkey World as you can apparently get married there!!

She said Monkey World was brilliant!!

I went a few years ago and it was awesome! Cant recommend anywhere to stay tho as I stayed with family.

We've been a few times. You will love it! Its so lovely to see all the apes and monkeys enjoying their new lives, after what most of them have come from. Try and make the orangutan talk. The stories of naughty girl Amy will have you in stitches!

Not been there but used to watch it on TV all the time, I cried when Jim Cronin died too!

Loved it and I really hope that I can make it there one day!

we have been and is very good. love the area as its only about an hour away from us so we use it for short breaks. we have stayed at wareham - lookout caravan park is very good and also in swanage area. look out for the ponderosa farm on the road to swanage. there is also a brilliant steam railway and corfe castle which are worth visiting

sue

If you do manage to go I will be soooooo jealous I love the series and have always wanted to go. I cried when Jim died too just saw that episode on Animal Planet the other day and cried again

Never been But I have always watched the series on sky....I was sad when Jim died

Have fun if you can go xx
