Essex Wildlife Trust Langdon Nature Discovery Centre

“Can't say enough about this place, and on the other hand, I'm speechless!!! Nature silence wildlife!!! Just amazing discovery! The garden is so beautiful! A lot of trails 👣 for walking through the woods and around the lake, I enjoyed every second... At the end, you can take a tea/coffee break and eat in. There is a gift shop, where you can buy food for wildlife. Recommended!!!”

“Lovely place with Peter Rabbit trail. Free to enter and free parking within opening hours. It's hilly abd not all parts buggy friendly, although we got our buggy round everywhere we walked. Lovely views around the pond and in the fairy garden, then finished the day off in the lovely cafe and gift shop.”

“I might be slightly bias because I know the area but the reserve is extensive, you can walk for literally miles if you know the routes. You also get an awesome view of the London skyline from the top of the hill. Don’t forget to check out the sensory garden in spring/summer it’s lovely and only a short walk away from the car park! Oddly enough it’s not listed anywhere on signage. There’s a very modern looking the newly built centre which is alright(but a bit of an eye sore in my opinion!) you can get some food and gifts in the shop.”

“If your looking for a quiet walk this is ideal, a pleasant small garden to walk, or a couple of longer walks available, we did a walk around the lake and headed back to have a coffee via the "haven house" this walk did involve a steep climbing hill and took approx 35/40mins(we are 65yrs old) There's no children's play area that we see, maybe a good thing🤔 although a couple of safe tree swings would be a nice addition Cafe was nice, 2x coffee £6 Car park is free 👏donations accepted. We went to Lower Dunton Rd entrance”
