Red squirrels are now considered endangered, but here on the reserve families of red squirrels visit our feeders, much to the delight of our visitors. You’ll also be able to see woodland birds such as treecreepers, siskins and great spotted woodpeckers that all make great use of our feeders. Enjoy seeing beautiful waterbirds including wigeon, moorhen to mallards from the observation hides with the help of powerful telescopes. The four star Visitor Centre provides you with a place to birdwatch in style and all in the comfort of a cozy centre. Sit back and relax with a cup of fair trade coffee while you marvel at red squirrels playing right in front of you from the viewing window
