A large granite boulder resembling a toad, situated in a scenic woodland area, with a natural pathway leading up to it, surrounded by moss, ferns, and wildflowers.
Distinctive rock forming part of a larger sandstone outcrop. With Bulls Hollow just across the road, it's one of the best examples of sandstone scenery in the area. From up on the rocks there are good views over the surrounding area, and some cuttings to explore. Head through the trees behind Toad Rock, and there's another striking stone by the terraced cottages. There's a pub just downhill from the sandy open space, and free parking on the road, but it gets busy by mid morning so it's advisable to arrive early. An information board opposite Toad Rock explains the area's geology and history.
Like a lot of places in this area, it's great for kids to explore but be careful of the dog poo. It's literally everywhere, like wellington rocks and high rocks. Dog owners never pick up and are extremely aggressive when asked to clean up after their dog so avoid challenging them because they will fight you.
Called toad rock because there's a rock that looks a bit like a toad. Awesome little spot for kids to explore. Lots of caves and crevices and rocks to climb on. Some have steps cut into them. Some old rock graffiti too. Well worth exploring if you're in the area. There's a bit of a sandpit area too. There's a pub right next door. Free parking on the road but it can get busy during summer/weekends.
Such a good little place to chill my 2yr old had fun walking around here too
It's a big rock shaped like a toad! What more could you want? Cool little tourist attraction in a quiet area. It stands out a lot from the other rock formations in the area. There is a pub nearby, it's easy to walk to and there is parking on the road.
The kids loved to climb the rocks! It may look difficult or dangerous, but it was okay.
