Lush place, toilets and a lovely cafe at the car park. Fantastic play park and sculptures along the forest walks make this a great place to take the kids. So many hiking routes to do from here, can pretty much cover any distance your capable of. Scenic route to join the roseberry topping route and captain cooks monument, will definitely back to try some more routes in this area. Loads of wildlife to spot as well, fantastic day out all round.
A place with breathtaking beauty, offering something for everyone, for all ages. Starting from Hiking, mountain biking, picnic, outdoor activities for kids or just for a wellbeing stroll.... And at the end of the walk ,you can enjoy their visitor center and cafe
Beautiful walk. Can make it as long or as short as you desire. I walked from here to Roseberry Topping then onto captain cooks monument. Fabulous views. Fantastic trails. Goes on for miles! It also has a lovely little coffee shop thats sells the most amazing cakes 😁 Plenty of parking but there is a small charge for this.
Sunday 22nd June Good parking available, plenty of walks great carvings and sculptures. Cafe and toilets on site Well worth a visit and spending some time there.
Well worth it. There was plenty to do with the kids and plenty of open spaces. Most of the trail was friendly with a pushchair. Had a great kids park with plenty of stuff for them to play on and keep them entertained. Lots of benches and places to sit if you need to rest or are having a picnic. The trail itself leads into a bunch of directions, and there's plenty to explore a good way to spend a hot day and get some exercise. The cafe on site served lovely food and coffee. Would definitely recommend this place if you're thinking of taking the kids out for the day and don't want to spend a fortune or even if you want somewhere nice to just walk the dog.
