Tractor/Trailer Tours

Tractor/trailer tour of St Osyth Priory's ancient Parkland with engaging commentary giving the history of the Estate. See the two herds of deer in the 12th Century deer park. Drive up to Nuns wood; the site of the Anglo-Saxon Nunnery established by Osyth and see the Estuary which the Danes sailed up when they martyred her. Much restoration work has taken place to re-wild the Parkland under the new owners and there is a large variety of wildlife as well as rare breed livestock.

Meet at the Car Parks in the Priory itself, CO16 8GW. Arriving from the Colchester direction, turn right on to Mill Street at the crossroads in the centre of St Osyth. Go past The Bury and the Gatehouse, then approximately a further 200 metres on, turn right into Westfield Lane and follow the signs to the Car Parks.

All the money raised by both the Tractor / Trailor Tours and the Guided Walks will support the work of the Education Centre, providing children of all ages with memorable educational experiences in a breathtaking setting.

There are no toilets on site for visitors but Public conveniences are located in Church Square just across the road for The Bury.

Please note that the paths are gravel and may be uneven in places, therefore tours may not be suitable for those with mobility issues. The trailer does have access for 1 wheelchair, please let us know before you book your ticket if you require this so we can ensure space. If you are unsure, please discuss your needs before purchasing a ticket.

We are partnered with 'Stripe' for ticket payments, so this may be what appears on your statement.
