Need permit to access and absolutely must keep dogs on lead but fabulous boardwalk around reserve. Went in spring and the bluebell displays were stunning.
A great little place off the beaten track for a bit of tranquility with nature. This place is not sign posted and Google maps takes you a mile or so along from the road down to it so ignore that! We asked a local how to get there and he gave us directions. Good luck finding it but if you do it's worth a visit!
Great, quiet spot for a walk. Small car park, plenty of paths to choose
Great natural environment. Great for walkers and dog lover, as long as you remember the country code, remain calm if you get stuck behind a tractor or farm vehicles.
Lovely place to walk. Nice and quiet with some beautiful trees and lots of different fungi, birds and deer to spot...
Beautiful nature reserve! So many different types of moss and fungus. We didn't know it we here and just stumbled over it, had a really pleasant walk.
