Situated right next to the SDR station, ideal to combine with a trip on the South Devon Railway - joint tickets are available. Park for free at Buckfastleigh station. See the butterflies and feel the rainforest conditions that they enjoy. The Otter Sanctuary has species of otter from around the world.
