Great natural open space and woods. Good for dog walking. I don't think this place is very well known. Bit of a gem.

Great open space closer to city for some nice walks and a peaceful atmosphere. Probably good for trail biking too. It has a big center open grass area which the dogs would love. Not crowded at all.

A good mix of woodland, wild meadows, footpaths as well so part of the open space is accessible to everyone. Good for nature spotters.
