After the sound healing experience finishes, the WWT Castle Espie staff will guide you on a tour of the reserve, highlighting the unique sounds and calls of the sanctuary's wildlife.

Finish your experience in the Graffan room with a locally sourced delicious breakfast and tea or coffee. Reflect on your experience and drink in your beautiful surroundings.
