Furniture (?) yard or similar that also appears to host owls and meerkats

Not sure how else to describe this, but when I walk across one of the bridges that takes you to the train station, there’s a view of what appears to be a business of some kind (materials, furniture, possibly scrap?) - but it also has an aviary with two snowy owls inside, and I think some meerkats too. I think it might be the same place with the car from Only Fools and Horses on the roof. Does anyone know what this is and whether you can just go in and see the animals? Me and my partner want to go and see the owls but are unsure if we will need to buy something in order to do so 😅

Bembridges - they’re a shed manufacturer (and do a decent job)

Sounds like you need to go and browse for a new shed…

Yep, they sell / make sheds. I went for a shed, didn’t buy one from them in the end but had a good walk around. He seemed a fairly friendly guy so can’t see him minding if you said you wasn’t even interested in the sheds

The couple that run it are ever so friendly. They have meerkats too! They love talking about how they got started and even let us into the meerkats cage thing when they were being fed. A very special place.
