Lovely place for a peaceful walk about, grankids love the watch tower and the big wall jigsaws. But mostly they love the idea of dinosaur to bird and the glass nesting area trying to spot and count the eggs. A wonderful amenity for the bird watching. It has some hides for observation. It contains an informative exhibition of bird species and their migration .Has the normal facilities with ample parking .Great place for a wee stroll. Absolutely gorgeous place to unwind. It's so peaceful with stunning scenery and the visitor centre is absolutely gorgeous. I wish there were more places like this Lovely peaceful area, with various hides to view birds. Quality equipment provided to admire wildlife from tower. Well presented information, articles and varied displays in the Centre. What a beautiful spot to walk, relax, bird spot and admire. Must be great for school groups. Didn’t see too much wildfowl but that’s not always the surprise! Just enjoy. I wondered whether I should give this 5 stars, but I decided to as I could not fault the layout and provision from this wonderful reserve apart from the current lack of birds 😄. There were plenty of dragonflies and swallows, including some nesting in the hides. Some swans and moorhens, and I think one blackcap. However, on the beach ate there were lots of Brent Geese, Terns, Black Tailed Godwits, Oystercatchers, Heron, Little Egret and plenty of Gulls. I also enjoyed the old pump house building as a good piece of history and an interesting roof light. The weather was very kind to us. Thank you to all involved for the hard work of everyone involved in the upkeep and maintenence of this beautiful area. I also had an informative chat with, I think it was Paul, a warden, busy in his work. Well worth searching out and visiting. Plenty of parking. Strongly recommend they organise a ‘D4’, and make it less contained!. Fencing unsympathetic coupled with negative signage. Get someone in engineering to check that the septic tank is not leaking into the surrounding environment The nature reserve is home to local and migrating birds which are attracted to the open fields, water channels and well-watered soils of the North Slobs. You can find depending on the time of year, geese, swans, ducks, waders.The Wildfowl Reserve is open daily and there is no charge. The 200-hectare reserve has a visitor centre with staff that are so friendly, and you will also find the 8-metre tall observation tower at the visitor centre. Wonder place to go for kids and adults.
