Long Sutton Butterfly and Wildlife Park

Description:

The park is a 'Quality Assured Visitor Attraction', just 14 miles south of Kings Lynn, the same distance from Spalding, and only 7 miles from Wisbech.

Whether it is a visit to the walk-through Tropical House, where you can see hundreds of colourful butterflies flying around you, or the Reptile Land with crocodiles to snakes, the Creepy Crawlie House or the famous Ant Room, there is plenty to do whatever the weather.

The park spans across fifteen acres and boasts other attractions, such as The Lincolnshire Birds of Prey Centre, with flying displays twice daily, the Animal Centre with species ranging from llamas to wallabies, possums to ponies and a large adventure playground and toddlers area.

There are also large car parks with picnic areas, licensed tea rooms, gift shop and four star toilets.

The conservation of birds of prey in the wild is very costly and the park does not receive grants from larger bodies, nor is it government funded and has, therefore, devised an adoption scheme whereby visitors can aid in maintaining the park.

Visitors may choose to adopt a bird of their choice, with the fee contributing towards conservation work at the centre and the cost of food for the chosen bird for one year.

The donor will also receive an adoption certificate and their name will be inscribed on a plaque on the bird's aviary.
