Wildlife

If your love of nature is as passionate as ours, you'll be in heaven at The Sanctuary Fishery. The list below gives you an indication of the flora & fauna that can be seen over the course of the year. It is a very special place and would be an SSSI site if it was located in the UK. If rare birds, amphibians, flowers or butterflies are of interest to you, then we have a variety of species that takes some beating!
