This 125-acre reserve features a mix of habitats including woodland, grassland, and wetland, providing a haven for a diverse range of wildlife. The reserve is home to many species of birds, including the rare woodlark, and is a key site for the conservation of the endangered fen raft spider. Visitors can explore the reserve's trails, including a boardwalk through the wetland area, and enjoy scenic views from the elevated picnic area.
A lovely site to have a walk with family and friends. Also if you call in during the week on a Wednesday and alternate Sundays they have a pop up cafe serving hot drinks , cans of pop and muffins and flapjacks. The centre also runs a variety of activities from adult courses to children's holiday clubs. A beautiful nature reserve full of life!
When we went on the Easter trail there were plenty of activities and the staff were always informative. Definitely a great spot. Also, there are 6 Geocaches for any Geocachers. The atmosphere is also very positive.
sheep! The ponds! The adventure bridge in the orchard was a lovely walk. Enjoyed seeing a bird of prey also!
Visited with my children for a pond-dipping session. More than two hours of activities, science, arts&crafts, nature, play and family fun. The session was well planned, and we found lots of mini-beasts (despite the water-level being a little low in the pond, due to the drought). The whole area was shady and safe for all, with clean toilet facilities for hand-washing. The area is becoming wonderfully re-wilded, letting you see how a rural Suffolk farm setting can be used to support the natural recovery of the area. There were horses in the field and a wonderful array of plants, wildlife and old buildings. We went for a short walk around the site (as part of the planned trail for our event) and found areas perfect for den-building and bug-hunts. There are no dogs allowed on site, so it is perfect for children to explore in safety (no dog's mess to be found in the long grass, in the wild woods, or anywhere.) The staff were friendly, enthusiastic and knowledgeable. This was a fantastic morning for me and my family. We will return.
Lovely little nature reserve 'farm' nestling close to Woodbridge. Went with my 5 year old for one of her friend's birthday parties and was treated to bug-hunting in a wild-flower meadow and pond-dipping, all with an excellent, friendly, well-informed warden.
We love this place! It has a couple of trails which you can follow from the car park, and is pretty flat, so is good for tough buggies and toddlers. There are wooded areas too. Be aware that unless there is an event the loos are closed, and there are no refreshments.
