Serene place with good walking trails. It also have mid sized pond with varied ducks and fishes. Finding a parking could be a pain though. Good place for quick walk in woods or picnic 🧺 with family and friends

Good path to walk around, but watch out dog shi.... 🙄 very near to M3, very noisy, good for dog walker but if you want a peaceful place go further to the big pond. 👍surrounding by resident houses. From the big pond about 5 to 8 mins walk to Morrisons.
