About
The Castle of Mey once belonged to the Queen Mother and is exquisitely furnished and decorated. The adjoining gardens have been magnificently restored and it is a beautiful place to visit with the family.
The Animal Centre, which was opened in 2007, is based in the old granary and is enjoyed by children and adults alike. The relaxed and welcoming atmosphere gives them the opportunity to see animals well cared for in a happy environment.
Visitors can have hands-on, supervised contact with some of the animals, providing an enjoyable and educational visit.
