These additions not only enhance the flavour of dishes but also bring a touch of nature to the overall guest experience.
Sopwell House has recently partnered with the RSPB and installed nest boxes within the grounds to help save swifts.
These wonderful birds are vital summer visitors to the UK whose numbers have dropped by over 58% since 1995, placing them on both the UK’s Red List and the IUCN European Red List. With only around 59,000 breeding pairs left, they face extinction.

Chief Executive of Wyboston Lakes, Steve Jones, praised the team’s efforts:
“To be recognised for our achievements in two very different areas is a superb testimony to the incredible dedication and creativity of our team and to our ongoing commitment to all aspects of ESG - environmental conservation, social responsibility and governance practices, in particular, to our people and sustainability. I’m very proud of what the team has achieved, they truly deserve this recognition.”
These nominations followed the release of their latest ESG Impact Report, which detailed their extensive sustainability efforts throughout 2024, including the installation of 3,200 solar panels, generating 1.4 MWh of renewable energy each year. They also launched a Room2Grow scheme, which will see 60,000 trees planted on the resort grounds.
