Port Lympne Mansion Hotel

The food was overpriced and awful! £20 for a salad with a strip of halloumi . The children’s food was disgusting. Why should children be offered chicken nuggets. Animal/environment disaster . With a small portion of fries, pot of over cooked peas and carrots and a small mango sorbet for £15. The safari was uneventful…upside all the staff were nice and helpful.

We had a wonderful family overnight stay, amazing to be able to access the park outside visiting hours, magical for all ages. Staff were brilliant answering questions too.

We had the most wonderful stay from the moment we arrived at Howletts on the Saturday. It’s great you get access to both parks. We stayed at bear lodge on the Saturday evening and check in at bear lodge was very fast and the staff were very friendly. Food was good at bear lodge and the playground and fire pit to cook marshmallows made it really special! The accommodation itself was very clean and the bathroom was huge with a great shower and beds were comfy. The views from outside the tent were spectacular and we loved sitting on the decking and going out regularly to look for the spectacle bears (which we got to see lots of times!). A special mention to Lucian who also went above and beyond for us when helping us when we went for an explore of the park in the evening. All the staff were extremely accommodating and friendly and we wouldn’t hesitate to come back again in the future.
