Longleat safari park will continue its period of closure over to Sunday, February 20 due to damage caused by Storm Eunice.

It had already shut on Friday due to the danger to life caused by Storm Office, which saw the Met Office issue a red weather warning for some southern parts of the UK.

Then it remained closed today (Saturday, February 19) as its estate saw trees damaged and power affected.

In a post on their social media Longleat wrote: "Due to damage caused by Storm Eunice across the Longleat Estate, we will continue to be closed tomorrow (Sun 20th Feb). Our teams are working tirelessy to ensure our guests can return as soon as safely possible.

"Anyone who has already booked Day Tickets will receive an automatic full refund within two weeks.

"Guests who have a VIP experience or staying in our cottages will be contacted directly to rearrange."

Additionally, they said to check their website for further details of reopening.

Customers who had booked Day Tickets are going to be given a full refund and they can expect to receive it within two weeks.

Anyone who had arranged to complete a VIP experience or a stay in Longleat’s cottages can expect to be contacted and given the opportunity to rearrange.
