Description

If solitude and seclusion is what you and the dog need, then this woodland has it in abundance - on a busy Bank Holiday we didn't see or hear a soul.    I found the isolation slightly creepy, maybe because I'd never been here before. Would suggest it's better for a couple of people or more plus dog.

Full Walk Details

The entrance to the woods is at the far end of the lay-by, on the left.  There are three marked trails, and it's just as nice to strike out on your own.   Jem and I turned left and walked for a mile or so under a tree canopy that was so dense that there is virtually no undergrowth, and it felt chilly too.   For dogs it's great, all off-lead with plenty of exciting smells to investigate, and lots of little wild-life tracks.
