Location and what's nearby
mAldington Road, Lympne, Hythe, Kent CT21 4PD
The Reserve lies close to the coastal market town of Hythe - which in Old English means 'haven'. So once you've spotted all the African animals you can, head to Red Lion Square for fish and chips by the sea, or pick up fresh produce from the farmer's market, hosted every other Saturday. Lovers of the outdoors will scarcely run out of activities, with horse riding, cricket and even sailing being popular options nearby.
