Our Green Journey
Our Green Journey
Woodhill Park is a special place, where rolling hills, native flora, and diverse wildlife come together to create a unique and peaceful environment. It offers a tranquil escape for Guests, and it inspires us to support the local biodiversity and preserve natural habitats. From the calls of birds to the scent of the sea air, every part of Woodhill Park reminds us of the need to protect and cherish our natural surroundings. By maintaining this environment, we ensure that future generations can enjoy its beauty and benefit from the many ecological services it provides.
Did you know? In West Runton, a Steppe Mammoth was discovered yielding the oldest and largest fossilised mammoth skeleton ever found in the UK! For those interested in Norfolk’s rich heritage, the 22 mile stretch of Deep History Coast provides a unique journey through ancient geological history, with opportunities to explore cliffs and beaches where prehistoric fossils have been uncovered.
Sustainability at Woodhill Park
The surrounding natural environment is important to us, so we ensure that Woodhill Park is carefully managed to work hand in hand with the local wildlife.
Waste Management
We strive to ensure 100% of the waste on Park avoids landfill. Guests are encouraged to use the correct bins located around the Park.
Our new waste management systems on Park include:
Recycling (clean items only) – Cans, plastics, card and paper
Glass – All mixed glass bottles and jars
General – Anything that can’t be recycled
Furthermore, a low emissions ride-on mower has recently joined the fleet of electric-powered Park transport, and the Park is using fully LED bulbs where possible.
EV Charging
There are four designated charging points located at Woodhill Park in the carpark. Instructions are available on each pedestal; we ask that you are mindful of removing your vehicle once the charge is complete to allow others to use the charging points.
Wildlife and Conservation
Ecological Management
To provide a more natural barrier between the main building complex on the Park and the road, we've introduced a tree planting scheme. This scheme includes native species that will be salt-tolerant for the cliff-top location and range in age from two year old whips to larger 6 year old trees.
In 2025, 3000 new saplings were planted on Park as well as a new landscaped area using native planting.
The areas of long grass across the Park have been extended in size and are accompanied by new interpretation boards. However, the most important ecological feature on the Park is the large wildflower meadow and the appropriate management of space.
