Come & explore our ancient Woodland Walk...

Come & discover the ancient Bluebell Woodland Walk

The wood, parkland and waterside walks of the ancient Woodland Walk hold Conservation Awards from the South of England Agricultural Society. The Woodland Walk is open most of the year dependant on the weather.

As you make your way around the walk there is much of interest - from an ancient Bloomery (probably Roman) to an old pack horse bridge, a 300 year old dam, badger sets and foxes' earths. And don't forget the wallabies with their joeys lazing in the sun or hopping around.

Spring

In Spring, the wood anemones are the first blanket to cover the woodland, followed by a carpet of stunning bluebells. In the mornings, the scent of the bluebells is quite intoxicating. It really is the best time to visit the woods.

Summer

In summer, glades of foxgloves and early summer flowers are found dotted around the cool greens of the woods. On a warm day, it is delightful to hear the birds singing whilst walking through the trail.

Autumn

The autumn leaves are spectacular, turning all shades of gold, red, brown and yellow. Squirrels are gathering their supplies for the winter months ahead.

Winter

In winter, nature is resting, ready for the year ahead. As spring approaches, the woodlands burst into life, starting with celandines. Wrens and robins are common sightings, and our herd of deer is easier to spot through the leafless trees.
