About Hawthorns Urban Wildlife Centre
Welcome to Hawthorns Urban Wildlife Centre, an institution located at The Common in Southampton, United Kingdom. Our establishment is a park that serves as a point of interest and tourist attraction for visitors who are passionate about nature and wildlife. We are proud to be an educational resource and a sanctuary for a vast array of animals and plant species, providing a unique opportunity for visitors to learn about and connect with the natural world in an urban setting.
Our park spans over acres of land and features a range of habitats, from woodlands and meadows to ponds and wetlands, that are home to wildlife such as deer, bats, badgers, foxes, bird species, and a variety of aquatic life. We offer a range of educational activities and events for children and adults, including group tours, workshops, and nature walks, where visitors can learn about the ecosystems and habitats present in our park. For visitors who prefer a self-guided experience, we have created trails throughout the park, allowing you to explore at your own pace and engage in some bird watching while you are at it!
Our wildlife centre features a visitor centre that is open to the public, where visitors can enjoy interactive exhibits, displays and a wide range of souvenirs, booklets and publications related to nature and wildlife. Our friendly staff are always on hand to answer questions you may have about the park or to provide information about the wildlife and their habitats.
At Hawthorns Urban Wildlife Centre, we are passionate about protecting and preserving the local wildlife in our area. Our park is a haven for vulnerable species, and we work tirelessly to conserve and protect their habitats. We are always looking for volunteers to assist us in our conservation efforts, so if you are interested in learning more about our volunteering opportunities, please get in touch!
We invite you to visit our centre and immerse yourself in the beauty of our natural world. Whether you are a local resident, a tourist or someone who simply enjoys the great outdoors, we guarantee you will leave our park feeling invigorated and inspired. So pack a picnic and come spend a day surrounded by the natural beauty of Hawthorns Urban Wildlife Centre!

Reviews of Hawthorns Urban Wildlife Centre
"Lovely cafe and fruit scone , jam and cream, as well as brilliant company"
"We had some lunch and a hot drink. My daughter had an egg mayo sandwich which was big chunks of egg that had been over cooked as the yoke was green. We also found egg shell in there so we took it back and asked for our money back. We had a tea cake which was supposed to be hot but came out cold and with minimal butter so it was very dry. Not impressed at all."
"Lovely centre to rest your legs whilst on the Common. Great little cafe with Italian coffee. Outside area by the pond. Good range of meals and cakes. Cosy and clean. Good place to meet friends for a coffee. Do a great Christmas lunch in December."
"Nice clean, friendly cafe. Obviously popular as busy but could still find a table. The food was lovely and freshly made and a very good price for the portion size."
"Lovely place for a coffee stop plus anything up to a 3 course meal! A short walk around the site (even at this time of year) there was enough to see. Well worth s visit after the lovely new park on the common. Just remember to have cash as no cards accepted!"
