The visitor centre is situated at the southern edge of Carlton Marshes. Carlton Marshes are situated in the Waveney Valley, at the southern tip of the Norfolk and Suffolk Broads. The area comprises over 100 acres of grazing marsh, fens and peat pools. The marshes are drained by a system of dykes and grazed by cattle in summer, providing food and shelter for wintering wading birds and birds of prey including the hobby. Water vole can be seen in and around the dykes along with special plants including the rare and protected water soldier.
