Have now been to the sanctuary 3 times as a family and we love it, apart from the seals, sea lions and the like there are penguins, otters and a really good rock pool exhibit. The staff are very knowledgeable and both adults and children can learn a lot. Beautiful surroundings, you can take your own food and drink and... More

We took the kids to this and they did enjoy it. Although its the sort of place you go once then youve done it. They helped to feed the seals abit of fish, saw them swimming around in their pools and generally enjoyed learning about them. It is all outside, so you need a good day. We were able to... More

This is a delightful place. Our 5 year old enjoyed the feeding of the animals the most. Worth a visit.

This place deserves a medal. They look after seals of all ages who have been washed up on beaches, damaged or injured and bring them back to fitness. If possible, they let them free or if not, they care for them for life..

We had great expectations of the National Seal Sanctuary, particularly as it is now run by the Merlin Group. However, we were very disappointed. They need to invest in the place and update much of it. The positives are that the seals are obviously well looked after and the staff are very good. The negatives are that the place just... More
