These ancient woods, located in Bedfordshire, England, are a haven for nature lovers and historians alike. The Osier Beds, also known as willow beds, have been cultivated for centuries to produce flexible branches for basket-making and other crafts. Today, the woods are a tranquil oasis, with winding streams, walking trails, and an abundance of wildlife, including otters, kingfishers, and butterflies. Visitors can explore the woods, learn about their history, and enjoy the serene atmosphere.
It's interesting to see but, at least when I went - you cannot walk in it because it's flooded, so you just look in. However, there are agricultural fields around with good views and some pretty houses. Parking is challenging on the very narrow village roads.
Small nature reserve mostly covered in nettles. Few osiers.
