This 55-acre woodland reserve is home to a variety of wildlife, including red squirrels, badgers, and birds. The reserve features several walking trails, including the 1.5-mile Shian Wood Trail, which takes visitors through the woodland and offers scenic views of the surrounding countryside. The trails are suitable for walkers of all abilities and offer a peaceful and serene atmosphere. The reserve also features a pond, a stream, and several picnic areas, making it a great destination for a family day out.
Lovely 1.5 mile wooded walk a short distance from the small car park. A shorter walk is possible. Some steep paths, some boardwalks. I visited early March, some paths were quite muddy but passable with walking shoes, boots would have been better!
It has a good parking place next to the reserve. We had rain during our visit here, but it seems to be a good place to visit in the spring to see a lot of wonderful flowers.
