Lovely walk! Be prepared to see many dogs, really cheered me up and just what I needed for the day 🙂 benches dotted around so plenty of seating areas to stop and take a breather. Only downfall; parking is difficult to find

Lovely place to walk. Woods, copses, large grassed area to play games or sit and chat. A stream to muck around in or a welcome drink for dogs. And a play ground - fenced for younger children and unfenced for older ones. Very popular with dog walkers because off road and safe.
