Sandwich Wildlife Park is Kent’s newest venue for up close and personal encounters of the wild kind, where you can meet some of your favourite animals. If you liked the surroundings of the Rare Species Conservation Center and the feel of Wingham Wildlife Park, you’re going to love Sandwich Wildlife Park – WWP’s brand new sister park! Our coffee shop on the other hand is now open so if you’re in Sandwich, passing by or on your way to Wingham Wildlife Park why not pop in for a barista style coffee by Lavazza and a slice of cake or panini.

I got brought the sloth experience at Sandwich Wildlife Park as a birthday present and it was absolutely amazing! We arrived for the experience a little early so sat & had a tea in the cafe there, the ladies working in there were lovey & very friendly, wishing me a good experience & asking how it was afterwards. The girl who showed me around on the experience was a girl named Georgia, she was very friendly & knowledgable. She also took lots of pictures on my phone of me with the sloth which was good of her. After being able to stroke & feed Sid the sloth, you get taken around on a little tour looking at the other animals at the centre and asking any questions you wanted. Overall I would highly recommend this experience to anyone.

An absolutely brilliant place for a UK golf break, 3 brilliant 9 hole courses on site and some of the friendliest and most helpful staff I've ever met. I've been quite a few times and I'm always impressed by the customer first ethos and the condition of the courses, regardless of the weather.

Played here at the reduced rate for winter, all be it still fairly pricey. I’ve played Royal Birkdale recently and that was brilliant, and playing any Open course is a brilliant experience you’ll never forget. I arrived at what is a slightly small and somewhat tired in parts car park and had to park in what I guess is an overflow car park but poorly signposted. The staff member in pro shop was really nice and helpful and you get a leather tee pouch with tees, metal ball marker and pitch fork and a yardage book, very handy and a nice touch! I was able to go out earlier and the caddy master was also very friendly and helpful! Don’t believe the reviews saying it’s all stuffy but I didn’t venture into the jacket and tie after 11 clubhouse at all!! The course was great and very relaxed with hardly anyone playing, I was able to hit around 3 balls on every hole :) and practice from all around. The mat thing in the winter is not a big deal at all. The greens were longer than usual but still rolled very well and fairways and tees were immense. I’d recommend playing here if you can find a sunny still day like I did then the course is really very gettable and enjoyable!

I have visited Sandwich Bay on a few occasions and at low tide it is a magical place as one can walk happily on the sand flats. People have told me that there is a toll for cars (about seven quid) but as I walk from Deal this does not bother me. This year we have the Open which will mean for a week it will be hell with all the golf groupies hanging out and this might spoil the peace and quiet of the area. In 2015 I walked along the footpath on a very hot day and witnessed a Fata Morgana (Superior Mirage) as I looked towards France. These are reasonably rare but given the correct conditions they can be seen especially when looking out to sea. Also Turner said that the light in the area is the equal of Venice- how true that is as the light here (I live in Deal) is absolutely stunning no matter what month it is. Although Sandwich Bay is great - you are not far from the lovely town of Deal which has some very interesting indie shops - Walmer and Kingsdown are nearby and I almost forgot that the town of Sandwich is really beautiful and so very quiet (apart from when the golf comes to town). Also you are not far from Margate which has a great art gallery and Whitstable which is just rather nice. There are other places such as Broadstairs, Birchington (where Dante Gabriel Rossetti sleeps) and Ramsgate which has the best Wetherspoons in the whole wide world. Think of it a remote day at Wild Sandwich Bay and a meal at Spoons in the evening (bliss) Do come to this part of Kent once Uncle Boris gives the go ahead SMO
5. Sandwich Forager
Sandwich Forager will take you on a wild edible tour of Historic Sandwich Town, in Kent. Starting at Sandwich Medieval Centre, we will explore semi-urban foraging, and end back at base with a wonderful wild inspired lunch.
