During the busy summer months, the site run moth clubs for the guests on site. This has been a huge attraction, and one year they were able to identify over 200 different types of moth. There are also three pairs of barn owls on the farm and guests can be taken on guided 'owl prowls' where you might be lucky enough to see one.
Over four miles of walks are signposted on the farm as well as several walks to local pubs and a good three mile hike to the sea. If you however fancied driving instead, it is 15 minutes to both Seatown and Charmouth beaches, great for a day on the sand.
