The Monkey Sanctuary
The Monkey Sanctuary: Nestled into the side of the South Cornish coast between Looe and Seaton, the Wild Futures’ Monkey Sanctuary is a day out to remember. Set up over four decades ago to care for ex-pet monkeys, it is now home to primates rescued from the U.K & international primate pet trades. On visiting the Sanctuary, there’s a lot to do for the whole family; you can take a tour of the monkey enclosures and learn about these fascinating animals from our team of expert keepers; take a gentle stroll around the beautiful woodland gardens, a haven for native wildlife; or stop for a bite to eat in our award winning Tree-Top Cafe. The children may be enticed by the play area, where they can swing like monkeys or take part in arts and crafts in the purpose built activity room. There’s definitely something for everybody!
