We stayed in West Midlands Safari's Tiger Lodge and were stunned by a unique close encounter
Nature is amazing - many people will travel all over the world this summer on safari - but one of the finest and most personal encounters you can experience is right on your doorstep.
West Midlands Safari Park has won many awards over the years and their 90 minute, four-mile drive-through continues to excel with its ever expanding interactive animal attractions.
But for the height of luxury and a day/night you will never forget, the park's wildlife lodges are beyond any adult or child's wildest imagination.
When you first walk in, your eyes are immediately drawn to the showpiece of the lodge, the panoramic views throughout the entire living room and bedrooms looking out onto your chosen animal.
We had not one, not two, but three stunning Sumatran tigers enjoying their new habitat - mother, father and baby.
The surroundings, finish and opulence of each lodge or cottage is quite remarkable - fridge fully-stocked with your chosen dinner, large workable kitchen, afternoon deliveries of freshly baked bread and breakfast on your doorstep the next morning.
