We’re delighted to share some exciting news!
Tingdene Group has officially become a Nature Guardian with Suffolk Wildlife Trust, proudly twinned with Carlton Marshes Nature Reserve.
Nature Guardians are organisations committed to protecting wildlife, caring for the environment, and helping to create a more climate-resilient Suffolk. By joining this initiative, we’re supporting Suffolk Wildlife Trust to:
Maintain and protect nature reserves across Suffolk
Restore and care for vital natural habitats
Inspire communities through nature education and engagement
Why Carlton Marshes?
Carlton Marshes is a breathtaking 1,000-acre reserve in the Broads National Park, home to some of the largest populations of wading birds in the East of England.
Perfectly placed between our Waveney River Centre and Broadlands Park & Marina, the reserve is easy to explore as a holiday home owner or guest, whether you take the scenic riverside footpath from Broadlands or hop across the Waveney foot ferry. For many years, Suffolk Wildlife Trust members have enjoyed free foot ferry travel, and now this special partnership takes our support even further.
This twinning makes perfect sense, as our holiday parks and marinas rely on a thriving natural environment. By supporting Carlton Marshes, we’re helping to protect the landscapes on our doorstep while encouraging our holiday homeowners, berthholders, and visitors to discover and enjoy its wild beauty.

This partnership is a fantastic addition to our wider sustainability initiative, helping us to champion nature, conservation, and the wild beauty that makes holidays in the Broads so special.
We’re proud to support Suffolk Wildlife Trust and Carlton Marshes, and we encourage everyone to head along for a fantastic day out in nature.
