    aboutSectionText

    Sculthorpe Moor Nature Reserve is a beautiful 200 acre and wildlife-rich nature reserve located close to Fakenham in north Norfolk. We have developed a range of habitats for the many different species of wildlife found throughout the stunning Wensum River valley and provided boardwalks and hides with access suitable for all. Marsh Harriers, Barn Owls, Red Kites, Otters, and Water Voles are a frequent sight and fully accessible hides allow close approach to a dazzling array of species.

    Hidden Gem

    Someone at Minsmere told us about this place which did not disappoint. I have never seen anywhere that has put so much effort to enable disabled people to enjoy birds and wildlife. The walkways are fabulous and there are bird feeders everywhere. We particularly came to see Bullfinches and were able to watch them feeding just a few feet away. We also watched voles feeding on food that had been scattered in the woods. We saw a young Tawny owl in one of the many nest boxes. The highlight for me was the "tame" field mice kept in the reception area----- I hadn't realised how small they actually are! Please donate to the appeal so that this reserve can be expanded.

    The entire reserve has been designed with a step free philosophy in mind. All raised areas and hides are accessible by ramps and boardwalks. Viewing platforms provide areas where visitors can view the river wildlife that we have, hides have windows designed at a lower height with areas where people can place their wheelchair. All doors are wide enough for wheelchair and buggy access and are easy to open, either by pulling, pushing or by sliding across.

    We have two areas of disabled parking that can both be reserved if visitors wish to call us to let us know of their visit. One area is concrete standing outside the entrance to the visitor centre. The second area is down the end of our drive to the reserve closer to the start of our boardwalk. Visitors are asked to call in at the visitors centre on arrival.
