THRIGLEY HALL
27 minute drive from Dunston Hall
Discover more about endangered species.
Thrigby Hall was founded in 1979 by Ken Sims, who was inspired by his time in Asia to set up a wildlife park to help protect endangered species. Thrigby has three different leopard species, red pandas, several snake species and many more creatures for you to learn about.
THE DEVIL’S PUNCHBOWL
45 minute drive from Dunston Hall
Devilish or organic?
The Devil’s Punchbowl – named for its almost perfectly circular shape – empties and fills with water seemingly irrespective of rainfall, which historically led to people assuming it was the work of the Devil. Now a site of Special Scientific Interest, it’s one Norfolk attraction that’s well worth a look.
