Undecided Map of deer locations in the UK

[monkeyballs]

My favourite deer location is Calke Abbey in the village of Ticknall in South Derbyshire. It's an NT property with a captive herd of Red deer and Fallow deer in a large deer park. Generally you can only walk the (extensive) perimeter path, but there are occasional deer park walks with the warden (see the website) so you can get into the inside. Well worth a visit, and like many well visited NT properties is has excellent visitor facilities, lakes and bird hides, walks, lovely gardens etc. Plenty to keep any photographer happy for hours, or to entertain wife and kids while you grab some camera time snapping the deer. I'll try to post some pics I took recently ... watch this space ...

ETA - hope this works ...

Thanks for the details, I added them to my list: http://www.shothotspot.com/hotspot/south-derbyshire-district-derbyshire-uk/calke-abbey

I copied and pasted your comments in there as well, hope you dont mind.

What do you mean you can't open it? Is there a problem with the site?

Just to let you guys know, I've marked the list as 'Crowdsourced' on ShotHotspot, so you can now all add any deer parks to it that you find. http://www.shothotspot.com/lists/photo-locations/deer-parks-in-the-uk

Where's the best place to park the car for Richmond, given the official carparks don't open until after sunrise?

 

[GlennW]

I'd suggest on the roads near either the Kingston or Ham gates, but I can't recall what the parking restrictions round there are exactly.
