Come join us for a fascinating wildlife adventure at Boconnoc Estate. Hop on board the tractor-trailer with our Deer Ranger who will lead you on a safari through beautiful grounds to the ancient Deer Park, where you’ll have the opportunity to observe these graceful creatures in action.

Boconnoc Deer Park is known as far back as 1540, Henry VIII’s map of coastal fortifications showed Boconnoc surrounded by a deer park. It is abundant with beech, oak, ash, and willow trees. It is home to 188 lichen species, including the only known British site for Porcina Hibernica. The Deer Park is a Site of Special Scientific Interest and is considered the best old-growth southern oceanic woodland in the South West of England.

The Safari will start in the Stable Yard with a talk all about the Deer, their habits and the work that goes into running the Deer Park, following this visitors will be taken to the Deer park on a tractor-trailer to observe the Deer herd.
