Amazing place. Small but such a rich and deep history! An amazing fellow by the name of Dave taught and explained to my group the history of the site, and the significance of the nature there. Very disabled friendly with accessible paths, bridges and parking!

What a beautiful little trail!!! Please follow the off road road, you then come to a very small car park. But for the time and day we went, it was just perfect. The weather was just right and the children took bubble guns, (produced millions of bubbles) which made the forest even more magical! And I was very impressed with the tallest trees!

A pleasant but short forest trail. You get to it down an unmarked single track road, but trust your map as it is the right way. The first car park you come to is not the only car park. If you continue up the single track road you'll find the second one, though it is smaller. The trail goes between the two car parks and not all of the trees are signposted on the trail, so pay attention to the map at the start (in the first car park). There are no seats or benches on the trail though it is well made and doesn't require walking boots.

Amazing walk. It is very short, but absolutely beautiful. There is an option to go up the hill, but it is quite steep coming down. We managed ok though.
