Descripción

The Warren runs east to west and is approx a mile in length. With the Exe Estuary to the North and English Channel to the South, it comprises of a sandy beach, grassland with many unusual plants, small trees and numerous shrubs, some wet areas with pools, a smallish reedbed and a PRIVATE Golf Course (DO NOT trespass on the golf course under any circumstances). On the north side the bird hide overlooks the main south estuary high tide roost, to the south the many excellent viewpoints are good for sea ducks/grebes/divers. Pelagic species are also to be expected especially during strong onshore winds.

From the City of Exeter the A379 runs down the west side of the Exe Estuary, after the village of Starcross, take a sharp left into Church Road near Cockwood (Harbour), this road eventually becomes Dawlish Warren Road. At the first mini roundabout turn left and go through a narrow tunnel under the Paddington to Penzance mainline. The large car park (pay and display) is just on the left.

Información extra

TAKE NOTE, since the winter storms of 2019-2020, an area of dunes have been eroded, to gain access to bird hide you may have to go via beach (BEWARE of HIGH TIDE at least 1 hour before - 1 hour after high tide), until this problem has been resolved. Dawlish Warren is a popular summer destination and can be VERY busy during summer months. BE WARNED AS OF 17/12/20, I have been told that the Dune path to Bird Hide is NOW CLOSED, due to erosion by the sea. You can still access the hide by beach between groyne 10 - 15 (CHECK TIDE TIMES).
