Perhaps you’d like to swap the camera for a paintbrush? For those with an artistic flair, we’re offering bespoke art experiences upon request for a minimum of 2 people, allowing visitors to channel their creativity in the heart of nature.

We have so many exciting plans for upcoming sessions and each one is different from the last. However, we don’t just let the little ones enjoy all the fun! For the adults, dining takes centre stage with our pop-up dining events, where visitors can savour exceptional culinary creations in a one-of-a-kind environment. Alternatively, for those planning a special occasion or private gathering and are looking for a location in Norfolk, our reception building and stretch tent are now available for hire, providing a distinctive venue surrounded by the tranquillity of the wildlife reserve.

Creating a Unique Education Environment
For schools, in the Norfolk area and beyond, we are offering exceptional educational experiences designed to inspire and engage young minds. We can accommodate up to 60 children per day, dividing them into two groups for alternating sessions to ensure engaging and enriching moments. Each group enjoys a captivating 1.5-hour tour of our breathtaking reserve, where they can discover the wonders of conservation and wildlife, followed by a 1.5-hour educational session. These sessions may include an interactive presentation with a lively Q&A segment, hands-on interaction with animal pelts and antlers in our stretch tent, a “Mini Wild Things” session tailored for children aged 7 and under, or creative activities such as colouring and making bird fat ball feeders.
