Beschrijving

The reserve is 'sandwiched' between the River Clyst and village of Clyst St George, NOTE RSPB Darts Farm is a working farm so please DO NOT encroach onto open fields and crops. The main Exe Estuary is very close to the South West and at high tide many estuary birds head to RSPB Bowling Green Marsh/Goosemoor Nature Reserve and RSPB Darts Farm, because the area is fairly low lying it is prone to flooding especially during Winter, as well as open fields the reserve has wooded areas/hedges and a collection of ponds. The area to the West bordered by the River Clyst is the lowest lying and is marshy and frequently floods. It is overlooked by a bird hide. Whilst the reserve does not have a visitor centre, there is a RSPB shop on the second floor of a small shopping complex.
