Transportation

Dartmoor zoo has a free car park that you can park in.  You can leave cars overnight if needed. The zoo is 10 minutes off of the A38. Use postcode PL7 5DG for the satnav.

We have a 35 seater minibus leaving the zoo at 11.30 and 12.30, undertaking trips to Welbeck Manor, Elfordleigh, Premier Inn Marsh Mills and The Moorland. We will charge a small fee to cover this on the evening. Let us know if this is of interest to you or you would like it stop at another hotel in the area, we can look to arrange this!

Local taxis can be contacted via these numbers. This list does not include Plymouth based taxis, so if you are struggling you can try further afield but it may be a higher cost.
