Kids Go Free offer for Howletts and Port Lympne for February half term 2020

Kids can visit two wild animal parks in Kent for free this half term.

The Aspinall Foundation, which owns and runs both Port Lympne Reserve and Howletts Wild Animal Park, has posted an offer which is likely to be music to the ears of cash-strapped parents ahead of next week's week-long school break.

Both parks are offering up to three children, aged three to 15, free entry when accompanied by a full paying adult.

The offer, is available at both Howletts in Bekesbourne and Port Lympne near Hythe.

The deal is running until Saturday, February 29 and so includes both the February half term holiday and weekends.

But interested visitors can only claim the deal by booking online, the offer is not available at either gatehouse on arrival, and this must be done by midnight of the day before.
Attractions at Port Lympne include the chance to climb aboard a safari truck to see the free roaming animals as well as the UK’s largest outdoor dinosaur exhibition, Dinosaur Forest. The reserve is also currently home to three lion cubs!
