Two very different species living happily in one sanctuary.

Visit the shop for otter and butterfly gifts. There are also facilities for treating any sick or injured otters that are brought to the sanctuary.

Buckfastleigh (0.7 miles)
Is a small, quiet town surrounded by hills and meadows. Best known for nearby Buckfast Abbey (now famous for its honey and wine) and the South Devon Railway that runs along the River Dart to the market town of Totnes seven miles away. There is a strange mausoleum in the town churchyard which local legend says has black dogs howling and breathing fire around it - this was apparently the inspiration for Conan Doyle’s ‘The Hound of the Baskervilles’.

Pennywell Farm and Wildlife Centre (1.1 miles)
Cute animals, quad bikes, mazes, train rides and trampolines - they won’t know where to begin.

Riverford Organic Vegetables (1.2 miles)
One of the UK's largest organic home delivery box schemes. Over 85 different vegetables are grown and a wide range of other produce is available. A farm visit followed by a meal in the Field Kitchen is a must.
