Animal Centre
Come visit the Animals at Heaton Park
Our animal centre is a great day out for families, children and schools with lots of great things to see. The centre is open all year and best of all it's FREE entry!
You can meet a variety of animals including cows, alpacas and goats. We have a number of rabbits, guinea pigs and poultry. We also have a few sheep which bring a flavour of the wild Scottish moors.
You may be lucky enough to spot a peacock up a tree or proudly strutting around the Stables Courtyard. Come in the summer and see his spectacular display of feathers. Out in the park are some Highland cattle with their long horns, you will spot them with their eye-catching long rusty red coats in one of the fields.
