Overview

Experience a unique overnight stay at Whipsnade Zoo at Lookout Lodge. Enjoy 3 private tours, dinner, bed and breakfast, and 2-day zoo entry included in the price, all hosted by expert guides.

Activities

Your stay at the Lookout Lodge includes free entry to Whipsnade Zoo for two days during your evening stay. Additionally, you will have the option to visit London Zoo on your second day.

Whipsnade Zoo is the largest zoo in the UK and offers a world of wildlife that you’ve never explored before. You can enjoy a full day of adventure and make incredible memories while experiencing thousands of amazing animals. As a ZSL conservation zoo, we are committed to protecting their future.

Your stay also includes three exclusive after-hours tours of the Zoo at sunset, after-dark, and in the morning. Led by our experienced hosts, these tours give you an insider look at how we take care of our animals at the Zoo and how we work for wildlife around the world. These tours are only available for guests staying at Lookout Lodge, giving you unparalleled viewing of our animals when the Zoo is closed to the public. We like to keep what you see on our tours a surprise, so you won’t know what animals you’ll see until you get here.

Make your stay at Lookout Lodge even more memorable by taking part in one of our animal experiences! As a guest of Lookout Lodge, you will receive a 15% discount on all our Meet the Animals experiences. And for the ultimate animal overnight experience, you can combine your stay with our ‘Keeper for a Day’ experience.

Food

During your stay at the Lookout Lodge, you will be welcomed with a complimentary drink upon arrival. Additionally, you will be treated to a delicious two-course dinner and breakfast.

Dinner
This dining experience is a wonderful opportunity to socialize with your hosts and other guests staying at the Lookout Lodge. However, please note that drinks will not be included in your stay. A variety of beers, wines, spirits, and soft drinks will be available for purchase during the event.

Breakfast
Before your morning tour, we serve our guests a scrumptious breakfast to make sure you are energized and ready for the day ahead at the zoo! Our breakfast menu includes a full English breakfast, continental options, and hot and cold drinks.

If you have any special dietary requirements, we can cater to your needs. We offer vegetarian, vegan, and allergy-friendly options.

Accommodation

The cozy lodges are well-equipped with all the necessary amenities for a comfortable night’s stay and are named after different animals found at the Zoo. There are nine cabins available, which come with either double or twin beds. Each lodge features a private veranda, where you can enjoy your bedtime tea or hot chocolate while listening to the sounds of the Zoo at night. Each lodge can accommodate a maximum of two adults and two children. Children can sleep on a pull-out sofa bed.

For an exciting experience, you will be surrounded by our herd of white rhinos and reindeer during the evening. These animals are among the quieter ones in the zoo, so you won’t be disturbed at night. But in the morning, some of our noisier residents like penguins, flamingos, and tigers might wake you up. So, don’t be surprised!

Summary

Don’t miss out on booking your stay at Lookout Lodge. Coupled with a complimentary two course dinner, breakfast, free entry to Whipsnade Zoo and exclusive after hours tours of the zoo, you will be guaranteed an unforgettable night to remember for all the family.
