Help Build Croyde’s First Owl & Bat Hotel! 🦉🦇

With a grant from North Devon National Landscapes (formally AONB) and this crowdfunding, we are building a wildlife hotel as part  of a nature recovery project in Croyde —providing a much-needed safe haven for barn owls and bats. With habitat loss on the rise, these amazing creatures need our help!

Why This Matters

🌿 A Safe Home for Local Wildlife
Barn owls and bats are losing their nesting and roosting sites due to barn conversions, tree loss, and development. Barn owls, in particular, stay in the area they were born their whole lives—losing their home means losing future generations.

📹 Live Wildlife Streaming – Watch Nature in Action!
The hotel will be fitted with webcams and 4G, so you can watch live as owls and bats raise their young—an incredible way to connect with nature from anywhere!

🎓 Inspiring the Next Generation
We will be working with local schools to organize educational field trips, helping young minds appreciate and engage with the wildlife on our doorstep.

🏗 Setting an Example for Developers
This project will show how small, well-designed wildlife hotels can help meet planning commitments while protecting local biodiversity.
