Lovely nature reserve to enjoy. Hidden in between a business park and busy high road this reserve is much larger than you could expect. There is a mix of nice open areas to lay a blanket down and enjoy the sun or shaded areas with benches to listen to the birds and nature. There is a couple small ponds as well to enjoy and it is often not too busy only 1-2 other people or couples pass by.

A wonderful little oasis in the city, can hear perfect bird song. Best bit was hardly anyone around. It's small compact but yet tranquil nature reserve, on a sunny Saturday afternoon. A hidden gem.

A wonderful nature reserve, which is much larger than it first appears to be. It occupies a triangle of land between railway lines, and is accessible by one entrance near Chiswick Park Station. There is a circular walk around it, with the paths well kept and marked by silver birch logs, and informative displays at various points.

Nice little nature area that is free to enter. There is a railway line along one s8de, a riad on the other, and it is close to the Heathrow flight path, but it is still reasonably peaceful - although not much wildlife when I was there.

Beautiful hidden area right next to the station. Hardly discoverable on the map but if you search by name you'll find your way there easily. Recently, this place won a 'Green Award'. Great place for walks, relaxing and discovering the local flora and fauna. The creators placed boards around the reserve with information about the animals and plants. That's why it can be a great place to take the kids also and teach them to something important and interesting about the nature.
