Crowhurst Surrey hotels:

At the British Wildlife Centre we offer a peaceful, relaxing environment where you can see over forty species of British mammals, birds and reptiles in natural settings. Many of these animals are rarely seen in the wild. Here you can observe them up close, learn more about the challenges they face in the wild and how we can all help to preserve them and their habitats for future generations to enjoy. All our animals live in settings that reflect their natural environment. Much of the area is outdoors, although there are plenty of undercover areas such as The Barn, The Hedgerow and our observation Badger Sett. There is much to see at any time of the year and most animals can be seen whatever the weather. We have keeper talks every half an hour to give you a further opportunity to learn about the animals, so whenever you visit there is sure to be something to see. Check the notice boards around the Centre or when you arrive. There are plenty of opportunities for photography, from simple snaps to that perfect shot of interesting animal behaviour. If you're keen, try one of our Photographic Days as well. You can bring your own lunch, have a snack or simply take a break in our outdoor picnic area.
