This place is cool! There is a huge variety in the reptiles etc they have. I was super impressed by how many animals I was able to observe. Sometimes it can be tricky to actually spot the animal but here, I felt like I saw nearly every single one. The enclosure layouts are very creative and interesting. The outside space is also very nicely laid out and creative. A very cool snakes and ladders playground and lots of cool tyre animals. There is even a little space to put your dog so it can run around in a little pen while you are there. You could easily spend a good amount of time at this place! They do talks and demonstrations and the friendly staff are very accessible and will happily answer questions. I happened to be there for when Danny was feeding a snake, and his interaction with the group he was showing was very knowledgeable and friendly. Take your time to look at everything and ask questions. This is a fun place! There is a cold drinks vending machine and a coffee machine. Toilets are around the back. Plenty of parking spaces.

Discover deadly is a must see! While the centre is small, it's easy to lose track of time from listening to the passionate and lovely carers of the animals discuss the reptiles under their care. We got to see a live feeding and got to hold Gentle Bob the python. I 100% reccomend it. Even if you have a fear of snakes, it's so lovely to see them all.

We had a wonderful time at Discover Deadly. The staff are so passionate and knowledgeable about their reptiles, and they definitely made me a little less afraid of snakes 🐍 😊 The reptile talk is an absolute winner - we were able to gently touch a bobtail, a bearded dragon and a python, and we saw a tiger snake in action. There was also a turtle feeding and talk, which we didn't make it inside for. The playground is excellent, our 2.5yo loved it. There's a giant snakes and ladders game, which I would have loved to play on - maybe next time. Would definitely recommend!

This place is amazing. Yes, it's small. But take a real good look at all of the enclosures, and you'll notice an insane difference to any other reptile display. Every single enclosure is impeccable, all clean and perfectly presented. Allowing a safe and welcoming space for the animals whilst also doing their best to ensure visitors are able to view all the animals. (Money well worth spent in my opinion!) Staff are friendly, helpful and approachable. I greatly look forward to returning over the years to see further expansions and improvements. I can only imagine Harriet the Salty will get an amazing outdoor enclosure when the time comes!! The animals all looked happy and well cared for. Well done guys on supporting the Herpetological field and helping to educate the community.
