Reviews
"Great place for dog walking. If done correctly your dog gets clean in the ponds that contain reasonably clean water."
"Great little area to go for a walk but stay on the paths because lots of dog walkers use this area. If you venture to far away from the paths you may step in something you would rather not!!!!"
"A really pretty place for a walk. The path starts and ends at the car park."
"Very pretty with lovely forest paths and birds singing and a peaceful church. Just a HUGE amount of mud so bring the wellies on!"
"Nice area with good parking & marked trails. Not huge but can link with other footpaths. Saw some lovely wildlife but was very busy on a weekend"
