Working with nature to build a sustainable future

Welcome to Knepp: a trailblazing 3,500-acre rewilding project that has changed the way we think about nature and how we can heal our planet.

A wildlife haven...

Since we began rewilding in 2000, life has poured back to Knepp, including nightingales, turtle doves and purple emperor butterflies – some of the rarest creatures in Britain. Roaming herds of cattle, ponies, pigs and deer shape the land, creating dynamic scrubland, wild meadows, wetland and wood pasture. Knepp is a story of hope, showing how nature can bounce back, if we let it.
Join one of our wildlife safaris and let our expert ecologists take you into the heart of the Wildland, through a range of stunning natural habitats, heaving with wildlife.

Awake to birdsong in our award-winning safari-style campsite or go glamping in one of our treehouses, shepherd’s huts, forest cabins or luxurious yurts, surrounded by ancient woodland and a wildflower meadow, with wild swimming on your doorstep.

Our Wilding Kitchen celebrates nature-focused cooking with sustainable, seasonal produce from our organic Market Garden and Knepp Wild Range meat.

Wild pastured meat from our rewilding project and other nature-friendly suppliers is available online, direct from Knepp’s own butchery – it’s good for the planet, good for the animals and good for you.

Join one of our garden tours or workshops to learn how we’ve taken nature-friendly gardening to the next level, using what we’ve learnt from rewilding the wider landscape, creating a beautiful space for both humans and wildlife.

Knepp is more than a destination – it’s part of a movement. We host an exciting line-up of events throughout the year, from workshops, art exhibitions and supper clubs, to talks by leading voices from the world of nature, gardening and food.

Our Events

Our 12+ Policy

Knepp Wildland Safaris, our gardens and campsite are all about the quiet and patient observation of nature.

Some of the species we are likely to encounter are shy or can be frightened by loud noises or sudden movements. Our campsite with open-air fire-pits, wood-burning stoves and an on-site pond is unsuitable for small children.

For this reason, our safaris, garden visits, holiday cottages and campsite are suitable only for children of 12 and over.
