Country Estates | Holkham

Holkham Estate location map

大象传媒 Copyright

Holkham is a fantastically rich nature reserve, largely due to its great variety of habitats.

Holkham is special for wildlife because of the great mix of habitats from marshes, dunes and sand spits to wind exposed tide lines, creeks, and shaded pinewoods.
