Nature Reserves
Our nature reserves are open to the public and we hope that they can provide some much-needed nature therapy during these uncertain times. You can find your nearest reserve by clicking here.
Bird Hides
The bird hides are open, but we ask that visitors observe the guidance on any posters in these locations and consider others in relation to mask wearing and social distancing.
We continue to keep the bird feeding areas topped up with bird food so you can still enjoy watching our feathered friends on the reserves.
Visitor Centres & Coffee Shops
The barriers are open each day for vehicle access.
The coffee shops at Low Barns Nature Reserve and Rainton Meadows Nature Reserve are offering a takeaway service every day from 10am - 4pm.
The toilets in the visitor centres are also open.
Please follow the coffee shops on Facebook, for their latest updates:
