Walks around the farm

We recommend you enjoy this Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty for at least part of your stay at Markwell. Individually colour coded  marked walks ranging  from 1600 - 3400 metres (1-2 miles) allow different sections of the farm to be explored.

Wild animals you are likely to see include Roe Deer, Foxes and Badgers living on the farm. Two walks pass large freshwater ponds, both stoked with Card and Tench, and  playing host to  many of the birds inhabiting the area

Wildlife

There are fantastic opportunities to view wildlife and the transition between fresh and salt water marshes.  Most of the river boundaries lie within a Site of Special Scientific Interest, where nationally important bird species can be regularly spotted, Kingfishers, Cormorants, Nightjars, Skylarks, Buzzards and Kestrels are among those that can be seen.
